Touch the one in the middle and follow the prompts. Pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

This is my daily driver.
It is a 1973 VW Super Beetle.
I have built it up over the last 14 years that I have owned it.
All I need to do now is finish the big engine for it and drive the wheels off.

I told my son that if he can make it through 4 years of high school with no D's or F's on his report cards that he can have my bug.
So this is the next project I have waiting for me.
It is a 1970 VW Squareback.
The previous owner had a set of bug fenders cut down, shaped, and welded to the stock square fenders to make the widebody fenders for it.
That was the major attraction for me.
I will be installing a 2332 engine into it one day when I have it finished.
But for now it just sits in the driveway collecting dust waiting its turn....

This is the last project car that I have sitting around the house.
It is a 1954 Chevrolet Bel Air.
When I got it, it ran and drove fine.
But the owner had hacked in the hydraulics that were in it.
I had them taken out and a stock front end put back under it.
That front end needs to be rebuilt and so it has been on the back burner.
Right now it still has a 235 and powerglide combo in it.
One day it will have a V-8, but it just needs to wait a bit longer...

I wish my dad would have let me keep it, but he sold it to a step bro cuz I wasn't 16 yet but he had bought a 71 SB brand new. Not sure if the Fuel Inejection was an option or standard, but this one was fuel injected. I remember that thing well. I remember at age 11, I was sneaking off driving it around the block. Then when I did turn 16 my mom says, I guess I'll teach how to drive the Toyota (manual trans) so you can take your drivers test in it since her husband wasn't going to let me drive their vehicle. :lol: We walk in the house, and my step dad says, so did he tear it up like Scott (my older step bro) did? Uhhh NO, he drove it better than I do, and made NO mistakes and I asked him where he learned to drive a stick and he tells me he used to steal the VW and drive it around the block so he already knew how.
