Twisted TBug

The Twisted TBug is a bold reinterpretation of the iconic Baja Beetle, a machine built purely for driving pleasure. Inspired by the sun-soaked surf culture of the 1980s, Twisted has taken a pristine 1980 Final Edition Beetle and transformed it into a rugged, hand-built masterpiece that perfectly balances nostalgia with modern craftsmanship.

Stripped down and rebuilt from the chassis up, the TBug features a 1776cc air-cooled boxer engine with Weber carbs, long-travel Bilstein suspension, and beefy BF Goodrich all-terrain tires. The cutaway tailgate proudly exposes the engine, while LED headlights and Baja-style arches give it a defiant, off-road-ready stance. Every detail, from the Ultra Marine leather interior to the Twisted wood steering wheel, reflects meticulous attention to both form and function.

It’s raw, analog, and unapologetically cool, a vehicle that reconnects driver and machine with every twist of the throttle. The Twisted TBug isn’t just a car; it’s a statement of pure mechanical joy reborn for today. watch the video below
