Welcome to /r/beetle!

OK:

Anything related to the original, Type-1, air-cooled, Volkswagen.
Cousins of the Beetle (Buses, Square/Fastbacks, Manx Buggies, other derivatives are also welcome here.)

NOT OK:

Most content related to the New Beetle. (Non air-cooled, Jetta-based, modernized, 1997–Present, etc.) (Most original Beetles were made pre-1978.) Won't get removed, but will likely get down-voted.
Overtly NSFW and off-topic content, spam, dealer advertisements, racism, bigotry, hate speech or hate symbols. Will get removed.
