| One piece at a time, Mr Wayne Kemp didn't particularly have an old Volkswagen in mind when he wrote the iconic song "One piece at a time". But if his song doesn't perfectly describe what unintentionally happened with this project then none other comes close. This car was bought with the original intention to cut up and Baja it. Yet despite the whiskey dents galore I found it too straight to cut up and changed plans. That's where 20 some odd years of VW parts following me around came to prove the wife I was right, that yes "Honey I may use that some day!". Well use they got, putting this poor forgotten car back on the road. A short list of accumulated parts are decklid from my first car from many moons ago, free rear fenders given to me by a local VW friend, front fender pulled off a fence post in Texas, the other pulled out of a warehouse in Georgia. Working factory radio from my now dead Super, hand painted shift knob, pained by yours truly long before I was ever legal to drive and a whole lot more. Will be a build thread very soon to cover most of the build and story to go with. |
