let me guess... you "need" more?
I like to go fishing, so I need a bit more.

>>28194820I'd prefer some better styling
>>28195013They're so beautifulToo bad they're also complete shit and useless unless you're a hippie in 1970 that never leaves the downtownI'd love a kit car conversion, say, this body onto a v6 fiero frame
>>28194820I need at least two missile launchers and a whole lot of angry Vietnamese Army on my tail.
>>28194820Mein Führer....I-I need a passenger side mirror...
>>28194820I will fully admit my dream car is the new beetle my parents got me an rc toy of one and Ive been in love ever since. would get mocked in HS and college for wanting one instead of a muscle car.
>>28194820I want one, but i am totally clueless about themIve seen a few in ok condition here in the UK ranging from 4k to stupid prices for fully restored bugsId be leaning more towards the "is that thing even road legal" kind of bugs
Stupid regulations would make it illegal these days but if you sell it like the original today it would be like a 6k car and you would see loads of them
>>28197009Ignorance is not an excuse.In the era when these cars were built you had the experience of people around you and books. When the cars were first built you also had a jackboot to keep you motivated too.Today you can find how to fix anything online inside of five minutes. On a scale of 1 to 10 this car has a difficulty level of 0.5 and work at your own pack without a customer breathing down your neck.
>>28195088You'll have better luck finding a zero mile rust free moth balled barn find bug than an unmolested fiero that's worth modding.
>>28194820Can these go up a long steep hill at 55mph? No? Then I guess I need more.
>>28197123China are probably producing new beetle shells by now. They're doing ae86 and those aren't half as popular as the beetle.
>>28195013My grandfather had a coupe Karmann Ghia in the early 70's. Sadly, he sold it for a Dacia 1300... Such was life in the Eastern Bloc>tfw you could have had a Karmann Ghia project car as a daily driver to cruise around college
>>28194820I could do with a little less actually
>>28194820I need less weight, so let's replace those metal panels with fiberglass
>>28194820Yes I need more power to trod along with modern traffic. On the highway you may have to quickly accelerate to insert into traffic between two big trucks. If you've ever driven a real, 30 hp Beetle like I have you would realize it's fun for sunday afternoon country roads, but for driving in traffic it's awful. Don't even get me started on overheating when you're in a traffic jam
>>28195088>>28197123Why does it have to be Fiero? Since you're putting a different body on there, the smart thing to do is to use a cheap, ugly, reliable undercarriage like some boring old Toyota or Daihatsu
>>28194820Blake Wilkey did and it was glorious.https://www.hotrod.com/news/watch-the-urban-assault-that-was-worth-45-days-in-jail/
>>28198682In no way is this a Beetle though
