Hamburger Harry's VW Trike!I can't think of anything that would be fitting for this, other than what else could you expect from us Daytona folks? Oh, yeah, it cost him over $100,000 (not a typo) to build from scratch. Some more views of it are available HERE and HERE |
Herbie disguised as a New Beetle!Believe it or not, I took this pic and the one of the other end (found here) at a NISSAN dealership in Daytona! Weird, huh? |

European-version 1972 "Baja Champion SE" edition Superbeetle!This is what the European version of my Superbeetle looks like. Beatiful shade of blue, isn't it? |
RPM's Blue Baja Champion SE Superbeetle!It was created by Volkswagen to commemorate its passing the record sales mark set by the Model T almost 70 years earlier. A look at the other end of it is here! I took a photo (not a digital one) of my Baja Champion SE Edition Beetle in front of my parents' former house near Daytona Beach. Look at that shiny paint... |

Boston Lobster Restaurant's Custom New Beetle!Unless you're not a VW fan or just haven't made your way out from under a rock until just recently, you have no doubt heard about or seen this car. Quite a lot of work went into the oversized lobster that goes from bumper-to-bumper on this eye-catching marketing masterpiece. You can also see what the lobster's tail looks like in this rear photo. Great work, fellas! |
Jon's Pepsi-themed Baja!It is a moderately-modified Beetle with some interesting Pepsi graphics and some kewl lights on the front-end. His website has more interesting articles/photos, too. |
