I might be picking up a late 60-early 70's bug from a friend within the next couple months. I was wanting to find out if anyone knew of any good websites for them for modding them. I plan to put in a new turbo motor, but I have no clue where I need to go to find pricing/info on it. Thanks

Not really. I've always loved the old bugs and this one is in damn good shape and it's at a good price. I've wanted once since i was like 8. Anyway i've got the money now with the new job. The only thing that would stop me from buying it is if i could actually find a older 5.0 in the same shape for the same price. Which isn't very likely. The interior is perfect and there is only 1 dent on the body. It needs a tune up and very little brake work. Just needs a new seal and it's good to go and they only want 2200 for it.

Well TECHNICALLY you don't have the money yet, you have the potential to make the money, but you don't TECHNICALLY have it. My advice, man, just save it and get the truck paid off, IMO there is no need for you to have ANOTHER vehicle to spend money on when you spend enough on the truck as it is.
P.S. VW bug: Thats NOT what Im talkin bout. Hippie

Haha, your gonna buy a bug. When I used to work at the gas station there was this crazy lady that was maybe 80 or so and came in all the time. She always brought her cats with her(like 4 of them), she smelled like Old Bay, and she drove this puke orange late 60's early 70's(??) bug. Thing was so ratty and gay.
