I’ve been seeing a lot more of these lately and I’m loving them even if they’re not exactly the kind of vehicle that I need in my life.

There was one of these locally, I think not this one, Forest Green IIRC. The Datsun pickup bed fits really well. It had an upright fan engine for a while and then he converted it to Type III cooling. That flattened the pickup bed.

The icon grass-covered Beetle, Salvador Dali's version looks like it has a toupee.

This one looks like a 356:



The original source 404s so I don't know the date. maybe 2008-2012?

If you see more than two VW beetles together, the term is "infestation"

Last night I saw a little girl, about 4 years old, getting confused once she figured out a VW Beetle has no rear doors. Most likely, the Beetle her father was showing to her and her brother, was the first Beetle she ever went close enough to take a look at.
