Rusty yellow 1972 Super Beetle.... Paid $50 for it about 1982 when I was 16. Froze my azz off driving it to school in the NW Ohio winters with no heat exchangers. Rolled it on it's side once. Repainted it twice (second time was because an old crazy girl friend I broke up with dumped a gallon of ZipStrip paint remover on it one night and flattened all 4 tires).
With most of the engine compartment tin long since rusted off/removed, I could have the engine out and sitting on my parents garage floor in 15 minutes flat.
Two of my buddies had Beetles too and we had lots of fun chasing each other around in them. If we ever saw one of the others parked in town, we would often detach the coil wire.... Of course that only had impact the first time or two.
