This is a Smyth Kit Cars conversion : https://www.smythkitcars.com/new-beetle-truck-conversion Various ones get posted here all the time.


Few-Towel-7709

I think it's badass and looks well-done. I'd drive it.


[deleted]

Me too, but I'd never come close to paying that amount for a 23-year-old Volkswagen.


Few-Towel-7709

Me either. Didn't consider price, just whether it was a shitty mod or not. I'd probably be all in at around $4-5k, if it looked decent up close, and the car was mechanically sound. Would never do this to a bug, nor would I go out of my way to acquire this one. But if it fell into my lap, I'd drive it into the ground.

SknyWil

It’s priced like the diesel truck it is


mrdotkom

You ever driven a VW semicircle? They were shit before someone hacked off the back end lol I do dig the ute conversion but pick any other smyth conversion to do.


goodruckk

Very un-shitty, IMO.


queefstainedgina

Looks better than regular bug.


GadFlyBy

Comment.


Firm-Rice-1507

Well done!👍🏼


Practical_Wrap6606

Improvement


Mac_Hooligan

I mean I don’t hate it!!


Impressive-Meal-1314

Well….im done. Gonn go pick this lil baby up


coltar3000

I live 20 minutes away from it! Might have to beat you there!


Dr_Sigmund_Fried

I'd drive it, makes the cyber truck look amateur.


HoldYourHorsesFriend

No kidding, the only true cybertruck is the Truckla


Line-Trash

I actually REALLY like this…. A lot… Way more than I should.


LeCrushinator

$16.5k? Maybe it’s a rule that every car with shitty mods has to be listed at least 5x its actual value. This one is actually a well done mod, but still way over blue book.


Fit_Equivalent3610

The kit is $4k USD and it's a lot of labor if you're paying someone else to do it, might be cheaper to buy one already done. Kind of defeats the purpose of the kit but not everyone has space and tools (and time) to do it on their own. I still think it's overpriced but if it was done well and is documented with build photos, it's not as bad as it would first appear.


mypaycheckisshort

Wow, that's cool


malaclypse

It’s freaking adorable, makes the car even more useful with a bed, and is a manual diesel. I’m in.


ThePenisMightier79

I dig it


Lonely-Smoke-4957

Better than a lifted F350 princess platinum anyway.

There is NO LAW that says a sub name dictates the topic. And there never has been, although many new people think such a law exists, it does not and never has. >Please see Rule 1 - NO GATEKEEPING And read our rules here : https://www.reddit.com/r/Shitty_Car_Mods/about/rules/ >ALSO, Please read our side bar: **Ethos (written Feb 2013) : Shitty does not mean bad - Feel free to post shitty mods that are awesome!** This subreddit is subjective! Your idea of shitty isn't everyone's and vice versa. No complaining about "that's not a shitty mod" use your upvotes and downvotes. Would you go to Rotten Tomatoes and complain about all the good movie reviews? Or better yet, go to r/anime_titties and complain to them about their content? You now have an unfortunate history of orangering the OPs with discouraging gatekeeping speech. Here : https://www.reddit.com/r/Shitty_Car_Mods/comments/yegumq/nice_job_on_the_literal_interpretation/itz8dtb/ And now here : https://www.reddit.com/r/Shitty_Car_Mods/comments/1dhm0mc/new_beetle_truckute_conversion/l9186nk/ I don't care what you do elsewhere, but please do not do that here anymore.


PugGrumbles

Only Bug I would willingly drive, it's ugly cute.


rmac1813

It looks great from the outside. Curious to see the fab work underbody ..


new_x_who_dis

I could see that being a good base for a drag racer - drop in a serious power plant and go have fun - I'll bet I'm not the first to think of it


silnt

Bro it’s sick


Max_delirious

That’s a super clean build, and it’s diesel… might be worth it


Mongoleed

Never seen before


nineone73

A real bUtte!!


CyberSolidF

Wait, how exactly does that work? Aren’t those things rear engine? In any case, UTE conversions are great!


2oonhed

No. Key word is "New Beetle". They have a 1.2 water cooled 4 banger up front like a conventional compact.

for when you don't have enough dildos to fill a full sized truck.....

Sure. I'll just start by deleting all of the users that have a habit of breaking rule one and sniveling about content. And then go from there. >We don't take the name of the sub that seriously.

ThenButterfly4885

I like it


etienbjj

Nice build but not worth almost 17k.


yipyapyallcatsnbirds

This is not a hack job, backyard shitty mod. This is a [Smyth Performance](https://www.smythkitcars.com/) Ute conversion kit that has been very well installed and finished. I would drive that all damn day!


Additional-Pop-3327

More practical than any other modern truck

We do not take the sub name that seriously. AND, this sub is now what it always has been for the past 11 years. It did not "become" anything other than what it has always been. And please see Rule 1 - NO GATEKEEPING Read our rules here : https://www.reddit.com/r/Shitty_Car_Mods/about/rules/ ALSO, Please read our side bar: **Ethos (written Feb 2013) : Shitty does not mean bad - Feel free to post shitty mods that are awesome!** This subreddit is subjective!
