My 1962 VW Beetle project finally seeing the light after being in the garage for 2 years while I put her together from a bare shell and frame. I put everything together from bumper to bumper, including building the engine. The transmission is the only item on the car I did not rebuild. Many hours, blood, sweat, and tears went into this car! She should be on the road soon! I can't wait!!!

VW Beatle California look - Top Gear
Some Britsh guys and girls took a VW Beatle as a souvenir home after the victory on Germany who didn't need any car caused of carpet bombing. They made out sunny cars of them.
Here safe at home they give this severe nasty looking VW a SoCal, a sunny car look. Now they would be able getting started picking up enthusiastic girls around the beach area.
That car became a Beatle it wouldn't hurt the English man any more. It wasn't a battle ship any longer.
History: After rebuilding their Germany it starts producing VW's again including the Kdf car pre-designed by Hitler.
It became a real plague. Millions of them were driving everywhere around the world. No body could stop them.
Even the police. In Nehterlands and Amsterdam the Police drove them. But nowadys again. If you call Dutch of German Police for help soon a VW will appear!
