Its a badge my dad put on it in the 60s as a joke.Mrbubblehead wrote:Nice bug. What happened for someone to put a sticker in the car that says "Do not open windows at an access of 120 mph" I buried the needle in mine(when I had it) a few times but i didn't think it could go much faster than that. Ive always just adjusted the valves from under the car, not to hard, would be nice to have a lift though.
Thanks for the info Brandon, I'll drive it as is until I can afford to fix it. When we parked it in 96 I remember the motor was weak, but I was not very nice to it. I even t-boned a Silverado with it and the bug survived. I rodded the hell out of that car.kompressorgolf wrote:i would also make sure that the valves are in adjustment, seems like thats the only thing that ever got these old motors down. after sitting docile for so long im sure it could use some new valve cover gaskets, as they just might leak like a sieve once that motor gets hot again (dry), as said above, i would rock it as is, the tranny should do just fine, motor too, it wont be a power house but it will get the job done
