Default Your OTHER Ride (and mine)

Just wondering if you folks have a second ride and what it is... I'll post mine up first, since i'm starting the thread (duh)

1970 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. My friends call it "The Tortoise" but it's also been referred to as "The Green Hornet"

yeah, i'm currently working on a (slightly) bored engine with a hot street cam and a 2-stage carb... it won't be crazy, but at least it'll move a little better. I'd LOVE to throw a 2776cc engine in there (it would be INSANE in a 1500lb car) but that kinda stuff gets expensive, and what with being a poor college student and everything...

That is really cool, I bet you get tons of looks when you take the car out to play.

oh wow, that's a very unique vehicle! never seen one of those before that i can remember offhand. i'm liking what you've done to the car though... sets it apart from the rest of the automobile industry.
