Life is moving on and I find that I am not able to keep slowly working up my beloved beetle, and so time has come for it to find a new home with someone who will put on the finishing touches and have heaps of fun with her.
A sad day for me, given the time (years) effort and money ($$$$) put into her...however, time for someone to have some fun, as it is a fun car to drive, and goes like the clappers.
