I have always liked this bug and the price and timing were just right. Another week and it would have been a no go.

2 Litres look good on it

Too many to drive! It's a sickness..... Five in the driveway with two more in the garage.

You still got the vert?

Yeah I do. It has the pan you need. Good pans too but one side will need the earlier tracks put in as someone put in a 71 and 72 style pan. $400 if you want it

For the whole car or just the pan? Might want to do a vert one day! What all is it missing at the price?

thats the body and pan....no fenders though, no seats, .....has all the glass including the window that goes in the top along with two top frames..... one super beetle and the one that goes to the car.....it has a hood and later decklid with rain tray

Will have to look at that one, I'm interested! Pen wants a vert Ghia but a vert Bug might work. She will want to paint it pink though. Yes I'll have to paint it yellow, Yukon Yellow. I need to unload the Super so I can have some cash flow.

I cut out the rusted out/patched up battery tray in Jenny today. Got the new tray fitted pretty good. I am just going to lap weld it in and seam seal it real good. Didn't feel like dragging the welder out today, but I should get it all welded in sometime this week. I just got too hot out there today.

Just a couple pictures on the way home from Callaway Gardens yesterday.

I picked this tag up from Tim a while back finally got around to blasting and painting it. Still have to clear it but it looks pretty good I think.




Also did one for one of my Dad's friends for his 69 Camaro.

Man that turned out nice!

I've been wanting this Bug for a while and was finally able to get her. Thanks Bryce! Blacked out the wheels as soon as I got her home

Welcome back brother!

Thanks! Its good to be back

Just wanted to post up some more pictures of Jenny. Bryce came out and etched the logo into the rear window for me and it turned out great.



Then I installed a nice vintage fog light I picked up while at BugJam


And just a few from the trip to BugJam

That's a great car.

Awesome decal.

very nice

very cool

Decided to do some sanding on Jenny and add some patina. I think it is turning out pretty good. Its a lot of work.....doing all the sanding by hand and then buffing it all back out. Still got a lot to do but here is some of the work so far




This is my favorite spot so far and it was a pain to do

Finished sanding and buffing Jenny today and finally got to put her logos on
