You know what they say — you never forget your first love. Or your first car. Or your first car that tried to kill you in traffic because it only had 36 horsepower. 😅
This week, we’re taking a ride in a beautifully restored 1957 Volkswagen Beetle — and it’s not just any Bug. It’s got a 90 horsepower engine, 4-wheel disc brakes, and enough nostalgic charm to stop a Cadillac in its tracks (well… almost).
🛠️ The story: This Beetle spent its life with one loving couple, who used it through college, marriage, and everything in between — until Colorado rust nearly claimed it. Then I got a letter: “Jay, will you save our Beetle?” Next thing you know, the whole crew at the garage is elbows deep in a total rebuild.
