The Vintage Beetle Car

It was a Sunday morning and we had just finished breakfast in a coffee shop in Ipoh old town. We were on our way to church when I spotted a very unique car. I can see its engine!
 I told hubby to slow down for me to take a snapshot of the car but instead, he stopped the car for us to go take a closer look. The owner was standing nearby and we asked his permission to take snapshots of his car. He was happy and willingly opened up the car for us.
 Rear engine
 No more space for luggage in the front.
 Audio speakers.
 The car looks brand new and in good condition.
 Interior of the car.
 This is the owner of the car.
 So clean and neat.
 Sparkling clean engine
 Another curious couple came to join us.
 After a few snapshots, we quickly thanked the owner and went our way.
Further down the road, I took a few more snapshots of the following.
 Say cheese
 Deep in thought?
 A portrait on the wall
I need my morning cup of coffee.


We need have no fear of someone who loves us perfectly;
his perfect love for us eliminates all dread of what he might do to us.
If we are afraid, it is for fear of what he might to do to us and
shows that we are not fully convinced that he really loves us.
(1 John 4:18, The Living Bible-TLB)

  4. The customised car is unusual. The proud owner must have ordered it to his specification and it'll get a lot of attention from passersby. Thank you for sharing photos of it and the wonderful murals and amusing model bear.

  13. Oh these were all the rage in the 60s and 70s. Bettles or Bugs were so popular. Still some around.
