So you actually have a Herbie? That is your car?

Yeah, itΒ΄s my "field-car" (it doesnΒ΄t have papers so I canΒ΄t drive it on the roads )

That may be the best field car ever. My first car was a '71 Beetle and to this day it still was the funnest car to drive.

Herbie is Β΄71 for real too! I agree, the old Beetles are funniest cars to drive Now I have driven with a New Beetle and maybe it feels too "easy" car to drive

The rear engine was the best for raising a little hell in. My accelerator cable would break, floorboards were rusted and it had no seat belts. Awesome little car!

Yeah, Beetle is a car which you really have to "drive yourself" (no abs brakes or something like that ) Also Herbie is not on good condition (we havenΒ΄t bought anything new to it, in fact the whole car is a huge "puzzle") and itΒ΄s very simple inside

My brother had a '69 Beetle and he would try to fix it up. He found a car manual somewhere that was very helpful. It could have been fixing VW Bugs for dummies or something. lol

I have seen this kind of book once: [link] It seemed very interesting but it was too expensive for me Was it this one?

hankypanky68 In reply to VWStiti [2013-03-14 20:57:29 +0000 UTC]

I think that it was more like a factory guide book. I was just kinda poking fun at my brother who is smart by the way. lol

Looks like Herbie is having fun playing in the snow. Also looks like Herbie is competing in a rally.

I donΒ΄t know is it my Herbie that good replica, it was made on minimum-budget ItΒ΄s `71 for real. We only used some older parts, for example front fenders and tailgate are older. The whole car is a real puzzle, it was green/red/pink/dark blue when we bought it!

Thank you!

VWStiti In reply to pococ [2012-07-16 17:39:46 +0000 UTC]

It was made on parts what came on with it Maybe old owner tried to made Beetle which looks older, I donΒ΄t know

The guy made a mistake when he switched Beetle to Harley (I mean that he surely will regret it ) But I belive that youΒ΄re better owner to her!

That sounds like mine (except, all orig. parts and right year) he had a ton of parts so 1/2 of my work came from the parts. thanks.

VWStiti In reply to pococ [2012-07-17 22:36:55 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, sounds a similar case Herbie was on pieces when it arrived (doors were only taped on their places, hinges were inside the car in a box xD but some parts were missing, for example seats and windows. Also there are no upholstery in the roof yet because they were missing too )

YouΒ΄re welcome!

Sorry, I donΒ΄t know how hard it is Only roofΒ΄s upholstery was taken off. CarΒ΄s Body was intact, only doors and fenders were removed
