Finally tested out the Baja New Beetle it actually did very well and it didn't get stuck also the panzer plate lower engine cover/skid plate took several hits and didn't sustain any damage.

I was watching your build, then your accident, and now the off road excursion! Appreciate the pics!!

Also, you should know, I recently sold my truck--due to fuel, maintenance, etc--and was looking for something else...your Beetle inspired me to go the Beetle route!

I'll be following your footsteps soon!

Thanks for the pics, couple more PLEASE!

Carl

Whats the spacers you used to get those jeep wheels to fit btw? Any rubbing with those tires/lift at full lock?

I saw one in Seattle awhile back, It had a body kit of some sort on it and was slightly lifted. Looked nice.

Truly look forward to seeing your car and meeting you at Bugapaluza... I can't wait to look at this up close. This is really a dream come true to me, I want to build like something this one day.
