This is a 4x4 toy.


2006 Bull Dog Mud Bog - Michigan Mudness

Curt Woods and his '69 VW were slingin' the goo alongside the big trucks. The Beetle has a 355 Chevy motor with Holley Pro-Jection in the back of the Scout frame that is made possible by a V-drive system. It sends power to a spooled Dana 60 and a 44 with a Lock-Right. Go Figure eh. See related Article

growing up in the 70's my dad owned a company called Scamp Recreational. Pretty much it was all VW toys, Baja bugs, Rail buggies, 1 1/4 mile VW dragster which did the 1/4 mile in the mid 11's. And one very unique VW Bug, to the axles it had 18" ground clearance. That was a fun toy..

All of the VW Buses from pre-1973 came with reduction gears, it just happens that those gears also fit VW Bug axles, If you look at the classic bus, everything is tucked up nice and neat, flush with the chassis.

Umm read the post above mine, its talking about ground clearance with the VW axles.

If you take a minute and read all the posts this will make more sense to you next time, so you wont make the same mistake again.

You quote something I posted, not pertaining to the original picture. I was talking about VW toys I had as a kid. Now being when I was a kid, we didn`t have digital cameras, I might have pictures, but that was more that 30 years ago, and I probably dont have them anymore.

So in essence none of your quote made sense. If you actually try to make sense, and not hack apart a quote, or at least to have the courtesy to fix the hack, and pre-view your post in the future, people like me, wont have to point out, that your not making any sense. Oh and I read your post a couple of time, scratched my head in trying to figure out the meaning.
