traded my vw bug for my jeep when i moved from florida to colorado
only paid $1500 for the bug and put about $500 and a lot of sweat into her



55 oval window grafted in
full back date to 55 front and rear
suicide doors
300zx seats
lowered front and rear
etc
yea i miss her, but colorado is two things florida is not
cold as **** and hilly as ****
and she had NO HEAT and no *****. (1600dp but still stock carb)

it already had a lift and was fuel injected as opposed to my old 89 wrangler i had a while back so i wasn't to heart broken



immediately painted over the "awesome" camo



and am now working on the full cheromanche build linked in my sig



the build has me at around $400 plus my labor
plus the cost of the bug
so i would say $2400 total so far??

Paid $4,500 for a 01 XJ with 85,000 miles a year ago. I live in NY, bought the XJ in PA (less salt on the roads= less body rot), engine light was on from day one (misfires).
- Since then, put $6,000 into it (lift, bumpers, tires, winch, etc, etc, etc), engine light still on. Hope I pass inspection here in NY this year.
