Long Live The VW Bug

Picture it: October of 1988.

The hair was big. The jeans were acid wash. The shoes were high tops. The sunglasses were Wayfarers.

With palm trees painted on them.

Seriously.

Palm trees.

I was, in a nutshell, completely rad. 

More importantly, I got my first car.

Behold. Me and my 1976 VW Bug.

Wasn't she a real beaut? The classic Bug design. German engineering at it's finest really. I loved that car. We looked so good together. Sure she had no heat and you had to keep one foot on the gas at all times to keep the engine running, but she was so much fun.

Right now you are looking at these pictures and thinking 'Wow! What a total bad ass and her finely crafted, yet threatening, vehicle!'.

You'd be correct.

Seriously. Wouldn't you be intimated to see this bad boy come up in your rear view mirror?

Yeah. I thought so.
