Project: Douchebag 2.0 (Part 1)

A couple of years ago i built a little musicbag that i could carry with me if i wanted to. To be honest it hasn’t seen as mutch sun that i would liked. But HEY! it´s fun to build, right? =)

Now to the box, i built it so it can fit behind the backseat of an old VW beetle.

Strap it with some fake leather. It came out pretty good, little bit to tight between some of the letters to make the leather stuck but it works.

the first front didn’t come out that good, so i straped it with some burberry fabric, but that didn’t get that good either, now i’m making a new one, check back later this week to see the result of that.

End of part 1

Herbie has find a new home

My buddy Andreas Åberg sold his race beetle a couple of months ago to New Zealand. and now the car was displayed at the 2013 NZ 4&ROTARY NATIONALS, still looking badass. It’s 2 picture up on Speedhunters of it.

And the info from Speedhunters on the pictures.

“At the other end of the spectrum is the vintage VW scene. New Zealand’s always been a little behind the eight ball when it comes to modified – as opposed to faithfully restored – Beetles, Buses and the like. Hopefully this recent Swedish import, a modern-built Pro Stock adaption of ‘Herbie’, might inspire a few people into action though, because it’s seriously cool.”

Snapshot Of The Day

Everytime i see my buddy Woffes Speedster it’s hard NOT to take a picture of it, and if i have my camera in my hand and he parks 15 feet away it’s even harder =)

I had to crop the image because my ugly ass ride was parked behind the speedster.
