The Flying Bug...
« on: March 09, 2010, 04:07:31 PM »

"The Flying Bug" (the official title of this dinkie) is a German car, a German soldier driving it, and it's made in England.  What WERE they thinkin'...?  It's missing the left turbo, tho'.  :angry:
Also got a nice name tag (someone we know, too).
One of the dimes and one of the quarters were both 1965.  Missed it by one year. :angry:
Donna got the 'Vette Sunday.

If Herbie could talk, then I made too many trips to the fridge & bathroom when I watched it.  :))
