[bandit88]

[Z28Justin]

:nod: yea thats was implied along with a large couch (thought about water bed)

[Knipps]

i'd leave the paint that color.. there was a kid in my HS that drove one :lol:

[Z28Justin]

[SamhainZ28]

theres a good beater for ya

[Z28Justin]

haha nah i dont want anything normal or auto.

[GP99GT]

its not normal.....this is a SATURN were talking about

[baddest434]

does it run? that thing looks in pretty good shape for 400 bucks. i'm trying to make out where the license plate says.

[Z28Justin]

oh its here in south jersey, iv already seen it. it runs fine the guys dad bought it new, daily drove it until he died and now its sat in a garage since but those old air cooled vw's never die. the interior is perfect so I'm probably gonna gut it any way and sell all of the interior parts to pay for the bus. and the reason its so cheap is its my dads friends and he just filed bankruptcy and needs money bad and just wants it gone.

[deadtrend1]

paint it like the A-team van. it would confuse people!

[12secondv6]

Nothing wrong with it.

I automatically thought teenage mutant ninja turtles!!!!

[WayFast84]

if you dont buy it, ill buy it for $400

[jims69camaro]

does it run? for $400, it can't be beat. and the crazy paint job MUST be done. :mrgreen:

[jims69camaro]

well i want a brighter yellow and the giant V on the front.

and you MUST paint a flag on the roof. doesn't much matter which, although the stars and stripes would look good regardless of the color of the rest of it.

[bobb1589]

id pay more than $400 for that...

[DaSkinnyGuy]

it needs drag tires in the rear and skinnes in the front

[Z28Justin]

ok brought it home today, haven't tried to start it yet I'm gonna go out later and get it started and make sure it drives and stops then ill start the sanding for paint. hopefully it will be at fudds in 2 weeks with its new paint.
