Default Re: 1931 Ford Beetle?!

Early vw bugs had some similar features shared with the Model A:

6 volt electrical system; Manual trans; underpowered 40 hp engine; exhaust heat exchanger heating source; Tiny wipers; tall skinny tires and wheels; top speed around 60 mph; near same MPG; not good for hills; similar weight; both get stuck on the beach and the windows fog up when making out with my girlfriend :-) One big difference is the Model A is much Cooooler...
