What is the Story behind your Screen Name?

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

I always assumed your handle was refering to VW motors? I thought you liked to drive w/ plugged idle jets or something? :D

I would have used a different type of wheel on that jack...I find that the metal ones get really noisy and tend to spark when I get up around 60.

I started racing dirt bikes when I was four and earned my nickname the hard way. I guess that is what happens when you ride/drive ten feet over your head all the time.

So Mark, how did you come up with "blind chicken"? Or is that another explanation to why you are always driving ten feet over your head? :shock: :lol:

rico, great meeting you yesterday. I hope I didn't come off rude dropping out of the sky like that. How did the El Mirage trip go?

I saw a certain black Baja at a gas station here in Rosamond, Ca yesterday and I recognized it as ricosuave1987's ride, so I took the opportunity to introduce myself.
So you think your project is taking forever eh? Well you've got nothing on me.....

the name is.....

Post by Oldbugss »

Ummm, do I have to answer this one? heh heh.

I got this name 12 yrs ago as a first screen name to use online. It's me and if you see it anywhere else, it's me :D

Not too deep or any underlying meaning besides I love old-bugs. It's up to you people to get me offroad again. That's where it all started.

Just can't seem to store them all!

Type of?

Post by Oldbugss »

All of the above please!

Well to be serious, I am into "odd" off-road. While a Bug with long travel would work, I would prefer a squareback or even a splittie bus. Yeah, gotta understand the center of gravity for a box like a bus but...

I really like the commandeur type looking full fendered Beetle for the mud and woods action. This has stuck in my mind for some time.

Luckily I have MNAIRHEAD (Tim) near to help me out in the re-introductions to the soil and sand.
