We don't all go gently as evidence by my '62 Ragtop Baja

This is where most of my fun money been going for the last 7-8 months, it'll never race in an actual Baja, at least not by me, just taking things off the bucket list ... I can use it around town and to post targets at my friends farm, and thanks to the 6.5 Creedmoor I can still shoot 500 to 1000 yards, my bones still won't take a 308 or heavier recoil.

My 15# .308 recoils like a .223

While I've never personally owned a bug, I am sad to see them go. There were a lot of rudimentary design aspects to the original but those oddities likely made it stand out. I remember my sister talking about that auxiliary Stewart-Warner gas heater in hers. She liked that she could warm the car without it even running.
