yea, its been staring me down every time i got to school in the morining.
About the cage and stuff, yea that will come as soon as we get the important stuff out of the way. This bug will not be street legal. registered as an ORV, not on the road, just up at camp and at the plains and stuff.

just took the pic the other day.

Whats the most 1970's inspired paint job i can do on this thing?
Im tryin to make it look like what it would if some kid right in 1976 was building it. All vintage

That is looking good jox, good picture angle. As far as a paint job from the 70's do ya really want to do that, Airhead will be showing off his old baha.

Flyin' Hawaiian had the most 80s baja paint job

As far as 70s bajas go, it would be pretty tame really. Probably grabber orange or a pea green with some black accents on the hood.

Think Mopar colors.

With a little GWAR or Mad Max influence.
