If you’re an OG follower of Limebug, you may recognise this ’67. Arriving to us as a bare shell, this bug was a completely blank canvas, which ofcourse in true Limebug fashion, changed quickly. Originally used as a Drag Car by the well known engine builder Stefan Rossi, the aesthetics of this Bug were certainly about to dramatically change. 

 Costing just £1500 at the time (what a steal!), the ’67 was in pretty good condition. Bodywork wise, little to no work was needed to be done – Allowing us to focus the majority of our time on the Suspension setup. Being the early days of our suspension development, the Type 1’s chassis was the base for a lot of different designs over the years. Upon completion, the car was running a 4″ Narrowed Air Beam, with our Gen I bolt-on rear air kit. Included were plenty of other goodies, such as an Early Managment Cradle and Titan Through Rods. To complete the car’s new lease of life, we had the interior and exterior fully resprayed. To contrast the Reed Green exterior, we had the floorpan painted in Burgundy Red (which also matched the red leather seats!). Once the shell was reunited with it’s chassis, Craig chose a set of Detailed Titanios to tie it all together. 

During the years of our ownership, we took the Reed Green Beetle all over Europe – including it’s debut at Spa, plus many more UK Events.
