nice - what are the palns??

not sure yet, i like the idea of a rat with a kick arse engine. all comes down to cash flow. i have nearly finished a full rest of a 71 beetle that i will need to part with to fund this build, so i will see how it goes.

You have to keep clicking on the left side where it says ( - Add Attachement - )

think it's 4 pics per post

Clicking on the left only allows me 3 pics. Would love to be able to add more in a single post!

how come i cant find somethin like this in syd

how much did you pay for it ?

logwood - February 22nd, 2011 at 08:43 PM

i picked up for a pretty good price considering its condition, even though it is missing its motor...not sure why ya cant find anything un sydney..... sure was a good find and i am looking forward to stripping her back, probably split it, blast and paint the floor pan, narrowed beam, find a decent donk then put her back together, should be sweet...i have added some more progress shots of my 71 if you want to check em out, just need to sell her to fund the 66, hope you like.............
