I love the moderate utilitarian overlander look/build. That's pretty much how I'd want an old beetle built if I had one. Plus since it's a mild off road-ish vehicle but not 4WD. It's not a very heavy, so it wouldn't need a huge expensive winch to pull itself outta trouble. I think it'd look cool with some diy F&R black tube winch bumpers.
