early square and Oz assembled '61 beetle
Type3Sicko - February 18th, 2007 at 09:31 AM

Just thought I'd put up a couple of before pics as our resto on these will be up and running as soon as our new '67 joins us later this month. Planning to preserve the square and just tidy her up as it doesn't really need much, maybe a respray? haven't decided on the colour yet. ...the '61 on the other hand has rust creeping through a nasty re-spray, lesson learned (do the prep properly and the results will last longer) She will end up Polar white. restoring three VW's at once will take a while and a bit of do$h but well worth the effort.

Had to sell when my first child was born. No time to maintain, let alone restore. It was my daily driver 71 Notch. Now my second is getting older and I am thinking soon I will have time for another. [EDIT: Err...another VeeDub, not another child :) ]

Here is some info on why you are having a hard time with posting, you might have already seen this.
