So went to pick up the future baja project Beetle. Well damnit all to hell. It is a whole lot nicer than represented. Never crashed, bumpers perfect, interior at about 90%, etc. In fact, its pretty damn rare too ('78 Peach Red Metallic Champagne Edition II, well that is the orig color and will be again). So I can't bring myself to destroying it by turning it into a baja. I must restore it to its former glory. So a baja project will have to wait even longer. At least gives me time to pick up a part here and a part there. May even finally find that '70 vert I'm looking for some day for a Baja, delivered, hey Brad?

Talk to you all soon enough. I'll be over at the '68 up forum if you want to stop by and laugh at me in my limited to asphalt only prison. :(

what were you going to do with a super beetle anyhow?

and you're too late, the vert met its demise and is now probably on its way to becoming a new car

Umm, make an omelet? I figured full cage tied into a L/K front, so doesn't matter if its a SB or not. Besides, curved windshields are nice. Even had the SB fiberglass lined out. Oh well.

I bet those curved windhields wouldn't be so cool, if you had to replace a few every season.
