California is the perfect place to find beautiful old cars as there’s no salt on the roads in what passes for winter in most parts of the state. I’ve seen more than these three beauties in the few days we’ve been here but these are the only ones I was able to capture on camera. Which one would you like to own? Don’t worry about what appear to be low tires in the third photo. There’s a median there, cutting off the bottom of the tires in the photo.
As always, Thursday Doors is hosted by Dan at No Facilities. Besides being our host, he’s now published two books that are getting great reviews. You can check them out on his site, see the doors he’s featuring this week, and click on links to see doors all over the world just by going here. You’re also welcome to participate by sharing a door or two if you so desire.
This, that and the other thing 
None of them really, Janet, but thanks for the offer.
It was an easy offer to make, Jo. 😉
🤣💗
I would have the red droptop
I think that will be a popular choice, Sue. 😉
Nice trio
Thanks, Sheree. I had a ‘75 Super Beetle years ago and what a wonderful car it was, so I always have an eye out for them.
Understandable
Three beauties, Janet, but I’ll slide into the Corvette if you don’t mind.
Be my guest, Dan, just don’t say I told you to take it. 😎
Love all three, but I have long been a fan if an old bug. What fun!
I had a ‘75 Super Beetle “back in the day” and loved it so I always enjoy spotting them. I like the old ones better than the new ones.
Give me the old VW Bug please. Talk about nostalgic…
Blue or green, Ally?
Green, please.
I love those beetle cars, my son udes to call them frog cars 🙂 The red one is something that I would like to have:-) too
We have a friend who restored an old Beetle so I always send him photo of the ones I see. The convertible is a beauty too, that’s for sure.
I love the shade of green on the VW Bug, and that old Vet! Nice finds!! The Vet would be fun to have.
I think they’d all be fun to have but a Beetle and a ‘Vet have very different vibes/cachets. 🙂
Oh Janet, I like your doors with wheels. Some great classics 😀
Thanks, Cee. They really are classics.
Hubby had a beetle when we first met. I had a red TR7 for a while. Now I need a car that’s easier to get in and out of!
We had to get rid of the Beetle when we had our first daughter as we couldn’t really get the car seat in the back.
I love old cars. I learned to drive on the BW Beetle. That stick-shift was something I came to love. These younger generations can’t use a clutch or shift gears.
I remember lurching around an empty university parking lot as a friend taught me to drive his VW Beetle. Many, many years later I had to drive a friend’s car with stick back to her house and managed to make it without stalling out. I was quite pleased. 🙂
Ha Ha Yes, I did some lurching learning to drive a stick shift. I actually got good in that beetle and drove my brother’s dump truck.
Yet another creative take on unique doors! I really respect “car people” since that seems like an incredibly complex (and expensive) world I simply can’t break into.
They’re even more expensive right now, Hannah. Whether you need one or not depends on where you live and what you do. Our daughter in Philly doesn’t have a car and bikes everywhere. In Arizona, we need a car!
My father had a VW Bug just like those. A tight fit for 3 kids, but it sure saved on gas. I like the green color of the first one. (K)
Great gas mileage and when I had mine, gas was sometimes $.25/gallon when there was a gas war. Also cheaper per gallon that’s a pack of cigarettes at that time.
And I babysat 3 kids for 50 cents an hour…
😁
Ahh, We had 2 beetles!!
Nice!
