Damn Matt, that car is really taking shape! Hope to see you at Litchfield.

thanks! hopefully I'll be there...but I might be in Cali for a few weeks during the summer sometime, so I'm not gonna make any promises. I'm kind of excited to check out the vw scene out there 8)

I took a bunch of pictures on the way home from Lime Rock Racetrack a month ago. Figured I'd stop being lazy and post them up.

They don't have 4 lugs....the previous owner put an adjustable ghia 4 lug front end on, so he put 4 lug rears on as well to make it match. I just bought an entire set of 5 lug drums at a swap meet today...back to 5 lug it goes! :D

You've done right to this old Beetle.
I just read the whole thread.

Nice work sir!

Yea, I pushed it in the corner of the garage to make room for the gray original '63 I bought a few weeks ago. Since this picture was taken I put a cover on to keep it clean. :lol: Happy New Year to you as well! I hope you're '57 is doing well!

ARTIFACT Sat Jan 01, 2011 5:05 pm

My engine is in pieces (but in good shape - check my threads). Learning a ton :)

Oh a 63! Do you have a thread for it yet? What are the plans?

Take care

Manuel

Don't worry I won't! :) Although yours is still nicer than either of the VW's I own!
