My finished Bug
vickie - January 30th, 2007 at 06:40 PM

my 63 bug bought oct 05,
started out with original interior and off white paint work, she's had a bare metal resto, and now she's been taken to the mechanic for safety testing... should be ready to roll by the end of the week.

thanks

can't wait to finally drive it, very excited now, maybe by next week the engine will be in and she'll be safe to drive..

found out today the poor old thing was only firing on 3 cylinders, no wonder she struggled up the hills!!!!

bring on dubs by the pub..... it will be her maiden voyage.... coming out ball etc etc

:sandrine
yep sounds like your so excited....I would be too.
So your plan is to have this on the road for "Dubs" then?
Hopefully we can all look forward to seeing her then....
She will be parked near my bug too as we have to park them in categories there so she will be easy to find.
Hope all goes well for you til then :thumb
