What a dick! Glad you saved the car from him. Lol

I love what you've done with it by the way!

It's going on 2-years but I just discovered this post. Great attention to detail!

Did you ever get the interior finished? Would love to see some photos. Also, do you still own the car?

Thank you, I appreciate that very much. I do still own the car, but have yet to finish the interior. Been saving to buy a house, so the project got side lined a bit.

Hoping to have it finished by next summer.

Finally got around to wrapping the car up. Headliner, seats and carpet kit all installed. Then Larry Chen featured the car on his Hoonigan Autofocus channel. Check it out!

Nice! I saw that video the other day, I was wondering if the owner was on The Samba. Are your wheel centercaps just the originals painted, or did you custom make something?

Just the stock caps painted at the moment. Thinking of making something a little custom, maybe an enameled badge...
