Beach Cruiser Near Sarasota, FL

[BUGSTUFF]

My boss sent me a couple of crappy cell phone pics - maybe someone is familiar with this car and can post some better ones.

I'd kind of like to see it with the top down....

Enjoy!!!

sorry, but

Other then the wood grain I like it

[MyOtherRidesAVette]

Nice... very nice! Very creative minded owner!
Appearingly superb workmanship!
(wouldn't be right without the wood grain and esp. the trunk on the trunk!)

We DO need more pics!

[bugsy98nb]

Painting the sides white or another color giving it the retro two tone I think would have been a little better , but its still not bad looking .

I wonder where they found fender skirts for it

[scarabY2k]

WOW! I like it. It ain't for everybody that's for sure. Nicely done all the way around. The color scheme as well as the woodgrain mate up well. I'm sure it's even better looking with the top down.

An nice "different" looking beetle.

[MyOtherRidesAVette]

And the "retro" wheels... WOW! Very well done!

Yes, I know! Drove enough air cooleds in the 60's and 70's!

Oh, how could I fail to mention those wheels--- very hot! They'd look good on any beetle

Took some special adapters or custom tooling to do that!

[MyOtherRidesAVette]

Hey BUGSTUFF , get the street from your boss so we can send out the "bugarrazi"!

Yep it did. There's a couple of how-to threads around here somewhere.

I wonder who made the fender skirts.

Somebody FIND the car! Leave an invite on the windshield to join us here on the Org!
Obviously another Bug Nut!

I'm about 4 hours away from that beetle and don't think I'll be making my way down that way any time soon. So I hope Bugstuff's boss will get some info for us. I'd be happy to mail an org care/membership package to them; maybe we can get them to join like you've said.

Yeah, they seem like a Bug nut and would be a good edition to the collective.

Bugstuff is in IL and this was taken by his boss in Sarasota, so it might have just been a "passing thru". We may all be SOL unless someone from the Org happens on it somewhere in that area.

How you doin' Buddy! Damn cold here, today, 30ish tonight. I'd go south but I'd be out in the Gulf! lol
