When I was 15, my first car was a '64 beetle. Just picked up this '71 super. Let the project begin.

During my 2nd marriage my wife would not let me work on cars unless it was her expensive ass Bentley. She mandated that I get rid of most of my tools and that the garage turn into a practically sterile room for the car that she loved more than me.

In the time since I divorced her, I bought a new house, built a 5000 sq ft shop on the property, replaced all the tools that I sold off and just picked this beetle yesterday to begin a full resto mod. GYOW gentlemen.

Oh, and I was recently informed that she traded the Bently in on a Camry since I wasnt making the payments anymore.

Why are you working on cars when you should be focusing on getting married?

How funny! I had a 63 for a first, and a 73 Super, later.

It will be a project, with an almost endless turning of wrenches.

Here's to you living life on your terms, which is specifically what mgtow is about!

Jealous. Always wanted one.

First car was a 65 Baja. Everytime I had to change the throw out bearing I used to lift the engine off the car and set it on my skateboard. Lol the joys of being 18. That conditioning that she manipulated into you will fade brother. Good riddance to her, and I hope your way brings you peace and fulfillment.

Beatle was also my first car! I love it! I envy you somewhat (in a good way ;) ). I wish you the best time while restoring it, and enjoying the road in it afterwards. Hopefully, I'll get my hands on another one soon.

I demand more pictures of this car porn!

They actually shoot flames revved

Good luck and stay safe!

I was never into bugs when I was a teen but a couple of my friends were. 20 something years later they both own bugs and are always doing something new to them.

Wow! I'm so envious right now. Drove the very same model but with a clear blue washed-up colour in California ages ago. Loved this car. Hope you'll be able to find the front "chromed" vintage bumper. Please keep us posted.

Nice! I had a '68 VW factory camper, just loved it.

I drove one when I lived in Brazil. They're surprisingly good to drive. And good cars off road too.
