Default D2Beetle '99 GLS Lemon Yellow NB

Well here is the new addition to our NB family (Thank's to HiLighter ); This NB is for my oldest son. Who is currently learning how to drive (using his own NB) a stick and he is doing well. During his last session he managed to start off on a hill using the hand break.

So far I have been working on the outside... I wanted to get a good look at the body for dents, scratches and other related items. I found nothing out of the ordinary; although I am considering restoring the front and rear, back to its OEM appearance.

So far my initial expenses have been limited to a set of MXV4 Plus tires (a four wheel alignment was needed) and an oil change and the three lower engine bay sound panels.

The next pictures will be after I get my NB up and running and it will be with all three, inside and out...

When I first saw it, I was ready then, although my son wanted an automatic so I pushed it aside and continued looking. Several months later I just cound not find the right automatic. So I was going back through all of the web shots I had, my son walked by and said... "What about this one?" My reply was... "It is a 5 speed."; then he said, "Ok I'll learn stick." The rest is history.

Yes, I do. My youngest is starting his driving career this summer and he will start with the '94 Explorer. It will not take him very long to decide on a more ecnomical vehicle.

So my future plans are to get another NB from the 2001 model year for him.

My neighbors all think I'm out of my mind!!

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Awesome picture. You need to adopt some more kids so you can get more Beetles!

So it that Lemon Yellow and not Isotope green?

Just added the interior pics today; apparently I forgot to do it when I originally posted the exterior pics...

CoriBug, yes it is Lemon Yellow and not Isotope Green. I like to think that I have the prototype for VW's market analysis for there 2001 Isotope Green Limited Editions.

KatieBug27, yes I have one more and I'm working on it now. I will have have five NB's when I am finished.

I like this car! Very interesting color and very interesting body kit too! I like it all. Never seen anything like it. Any idea what it is and where to find it? I might be interested in something like that for mine. It's subtle yet not stock! lol Congrats on all the dubness!

The previous owner researched it and here is the original NB.ORG classified thread. I sent him an e-mail.
