Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

Yeah, I own a Beetle and it is definitely not cheap transportation. Though as far as old collector cars go, it is pretty cheap to own and very easy to get parts for it.

It’s also worth about $15k to $20k, which isn’t bad for a car that originally sold for $1600. :slight_smile:

While we’re on the subject of Beetles, I saw one yesterday (not mine). No pics as I was driving and it came from the other direction. It was not restored and had more of a rat rod vibe going for it. It had been lowered (which I hate) and had a roof rack, and the engine sounded very high performance and definitely not stock.

My own Beetle is currently stuck in my garage. Friggen squirrel decided to chew my garage door wiring. He completely removed about a foot of the switch wiring up near the door motor. I’m surprised the little monster didn’t electrocute himself.

Took a trip to western Mass for some spring skiing and visiting, spotted some fun cars.

VW Type 2, first generation, maybe a 1967 model, complete with surfboard on the roof rack:

Second, in the ski area parking lot, the ultimate spring ski car, an early 70s MG MGB roadster:

Finally, also at the ski area, a 4WD Suzuki Every van, no idea what generation:

I’m getting an error ‘Imgur is temporarily over capacity’

Anyone else?

How do you figure, the skis are almost as long as the car is, & there’s no roof for a roof rack? All our ski areas shut down by mid-March

No, I can see 'em.

Thanks. Might be some sort of Add blocker weirdness on my end.

It’s completely impractical, the perfect vehicle for the absurdity of closing day skiing in shorts and t-shirts.
