hey all
im warren and im 18. i own a 1968 beetle (my first car) that i am currently restoring. at first i was planning to make a baja bug then decided to make a cool street bug. i have had it for about a year now and its currently in the paint shop. i am going to paint it white with a black interior. i have brought new panels for it to get the best end result i can. i am going to put a 4 point roll cage in it, made by my dad who runs flamin fabrications who specialise in that sort of stuff.
like all restoration projects there is still alot on the to do list...
i want to get a new motor, new rims, new exhaust, new breaks and get it on the road 馃槀
