I have a 76 standard Beetle and a 79 Karmann cabriolet, both are daily drivers and not stock BECAUSE they are daily drivers. Going up an inclined on-ramp to get on the interstate which is doing 75-85 mph during morning rush hour with a stock engine is terrible way to die. I have custom engines on both and i can cruise with the big dogs. Yes, it decreases the value of the car as it is not stock but since I never plan on selling my babies, it doesnt matter. What does matter is the look on the face of the guy in the Mustang when i fly past him, seeing Boomers punching each other in the arm in the grocery store parking lot, or my ear-to-ear grin when someone yells “ I love your Bug!” as i tootle down the street. Old Bugs bring smiles so the Bug Community should consider it their civic duty to drive as much as possible. 😁
