todd was looking for ideas for the front page and this one hit me... why not have a detailed look at a club members ride? maybe 1 a month or something. general stuff, year, model, modifications, before and after pic if available.... that sort of thing

if that sounds cool and people need some pics or some stuff uploaded i would be happy to. and i know there are a few others on here that are good with a camera.

just an idea...lets hear what ya think 8)

Who knew that a cheap little car designed for the masses at the whim of an evil dictator could be so very cool more than 6 decades later?

maybe a format sorta like this?

•   Year
•   Model
•   Engine
•   Transmission
•   Modifications
                number of times towed, or left stranded :wink:
•   Track times (if known)
•   Purchase date
•   Fun/ interesting info
•   Pics

then just send them to todd as a word document?? and let us know what size the pics need to be..

careful with the shorthand as we now have a CJ and it thru me for just a spilt second...just a split second nothing more.


and this is a great idea as long as supers can featured too!

if not i guess i'll understand :roll: , our country is run by a dictator why not our website. :evil:
The worst performance mod is whatever you're limited to because you convinced yourself (or others) that anything bigger or faster was too extreme for a street car.

Unless I'm wrong here, they're talking about Super Beetles. Must be an inside Aircooled joke.....
