I have owned bugs for 30 yrs and never have modified one to this degree.
Saw a picture of a Bug Truck and said that looks cool so my son and i have
a few bugs laying around and an old Chevrolet truck cab and decided to build us a bug truck so we started with a 74 standard bug and cut the top and rear half off the cabin and started to work…..we have the big pieces welded in place and need some guidance on how to radius the door tops to match the curve of the top ….. any one out there with knowledge on how to do this speak up we are listening. we have loaded some pictures in the gallery for your viewing…….we are going to use a pancake type 3 engine so to have more room in the bed to make it a little more useful…….and cleaner….
we chopped the top 3" in the process and plan on a bench seat from an S10.
We have named it Stitch because it looks like a Frankenstein of sorts.
