The 15,007,034th VW Beetle rolls off the assembly line, breaking the record for total production set by the Model T Ford.
Now, what to do with all those old Bugs...it's trike time!
Join the rearend of a Volkswagen with the frontend of a motorcycle, cover it with a body painted primer grey or candy apple red, chrome-out the motor and fit it with a couple of big-ass Weber carbs, throw on some fat tires and you have yourself a trike!
The VW trike is fast, lightweight and damn good on gas. Why, it's the perfect blend of car and bike. Whether you're doing the mild, a DIY VW trike kit or the wild, such as "The Bug Eye", a 1966 chopped Beetle body with a 96" Harley-Davidson shovelhead motor, 14" over twisted springer front end with a 21" front wheel. The Beetle is the perfect starting point for a trike conversion.
