its a 1967 vw bug with a fiberglass bed kit attached to the rear. air cooled dual port 1600 rear engine. the wife and are gonna paint it a satin brick red with gloss almond white accents.....turn it into an apple orchard type truck. oak slatted bed with oak running boards, may baja it, but i like the lower stance. clear tail lights and clear fender markers.....beige interior with brick red accents. keep the wheels thats on it, but have them powdercoated the almond color. and like i said, it HAS to have the loudest, most obnoxious exhaust possible.
