Hello. My name is Lucas. I just purchased this 87 Cabriolet for $600.00. Runs nice, (stock engine 5 speed) rides nice, (H+R lowering springs, bogey struts-15" BBS) More pics. will follow as progress occurs.........

Here's me in the Hog. peniswaffle's 1987 Volkswagen Cabriolet

A nice front end shot. The grill is mint. But it is getting a badgeless with new headlights. peniswaffle's 1987 Volkswagen Cabriolet

The interior is nothing to brag about, yet. It's getting a new dash (84 Rabbit dash) new seats, carpet, door panels, top, and gauges. peniswaffle's 1987 Volkswagen Cabriolet

I think this car looks hot all ready.

How can you argue with 15" BBS?

It's missing a front bumper end. But it will be getting new Euro bumps. front and back. And hopfully a BBS front spoiler.

It already has BBS sideskirts and wheel flares on.

Hey Lucas, the 'Olet is looking good, it's coming along nicely. You got a great deal on it. It's cool to see another '87 going through changes and getting modded. I haven't been able to do too much to mine just yet. Eventually (maybe) I'll have mine kitted with some bigger rims and other goodies, but my Focus takes my money for now (Why my Ford takes presidence over my V-Dub, I don't know...)!!! Check out my Cabriolet if you get the chance. Have fun and keep it real!!

Forget to ask-where'd the name "Hog" come from? Are you going to remove two wheels? LOL!

You got a great deal on your Cabby and sounds like you are making it even better. There are usually lots of parts on ebay. You might want to check out the Yahoo Cabriolet group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cabrioletandcabrio/ for helpful advice. Some members also have parts cars. Good luck!
