And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Looks like a good car to have for the apocalypse provided it still has the air-cooled VW engine in it. Simple engine with points, condensor, and coil that is easy to push start.
When I was stationed in Norfolk I put together about a dozen baja bugs. I got the kits for $150 including the headers and got the tires used from a place in Ocean View pretty cheap. I sold most of them to the Marines stationed at Cinclant. Fun times.
Had a buddy in the 70s that put big ol' tractor tires in the rear and left the front ones stock. He said it couldn't get stuck. Proved him wrong in a big mud field in the Bonne Carre spillway.

The baja pictured is an RC car.
DeleteExplains the $150 lot price, I guess.
