Post by: Tomp45 on January 26, 2011, 01:49:16 PM
This will be my build thread. I wont start building until March, so for now give me suggestions on what to put on the Baja. All posts are appreciated. Even hate. I'll include a checklist with links to all the parts. This is just the start. Thanks.

Also, why a bug? Cause those kits are cheap? The Bug is the wii of vehicles.
Can you show me another vehicle that is as cheap and as simple as a pre-'79 VW Bug? One where you can switch out an engine in ten minutes, where a fender costs 100$?
