          Maybe it is the muscle car guys, I dont know. When I went to the Kimbertown antique car show a little while ago, I showed my 55 - no one gave me a hard time. Maybe it's the antique crowd more accepting. In fact, lot of people seemed to like my bug - there is one thing that we got going that other car type owners dont, - our cars carry a lot of nostalgia    (love    with people.  Seems like everyone in the world had one. They love those memories.

Maybe it's also the fact that you have a really nice car :icon_biggrin:

I may have you guys beat as far as paint jobs go. I'm showing the left profile of Sleeping Beauty. She has a green body, tan hood, and black primer front right fender. This is a one off three tone variation of the basic Type 1.

It's more important that I know how fast my car will stop.

Little rustoleum and some sand paper will take care of that!

Hope Frank doesn't read this!

If we can choose what the angle of the car will be, that would be great!. MIke If your paint job is better than mine I gotta see this! I spent many hours getting the rust spots to to look just right.  :)
