Baja Finally Completed

Rural Baja · 2008-08-18T03:57:56+00:00

Body wise its immac, no rust at all! Only in passenger door..... Shame the back has been cut off. Was at 50th anniversary meet in hobart in 2003, had front mudguards on the back. Engine was filled up with diesel oil, and blows so much smoke. Keeping the beetle front, baja rear. #UPDATE at BOTTOM#

Hey mate,

Just wondering, what type of paint did you use? a 2 pack type or what?

Certainly a transformation from a $25 paddock basher. All built to a budget of $1500 including rego.

Doesnt get much better than that 😁
