Picked up and dialed in this oval beetle today for KB. Psyched to be able to drive his one around a bit! Clean car. Changed out the battery cables and did a tune up of the motor.  It’s a cool motor with a lot of “vintage speed” type stuff on it. It’s a 1776 if I’m not mistaken. Sweet interior with a couple hidden gauges(fuel and temp) in the middle of the dash. Porsche seats 356 speedo and tachometer lots of sick little details on this car

Polished Porsche drums that look badass behind the black Porsche wheels.Morris Bros have the same drum lathe that you guys have at KCW. Jack and I spun the rear drums and made the brakes feel great.got the brakes readjusted and drove it around all over tonight. Runs great! Psyched on this one

How do you like driving around a “sporty” beetle compared to all the busses you have been driving the last few years… ?

It’s a lot of fun. A lot different. Feels closer to the way 356’s drive. But I’m still a bus guy, through and through. You’ll have to drive this car, it’s sick. Plan is to put a new motor in KB’s speedster and then put that speedster motor in this beetle. That’ll be a cool “vintage speed” touch
