My ride (72 Squareback)
Hey guys,
I'm new to this forum so ill tell you a bit about myself. I'm a student who's always been interested with classic vw's. I'm looking to restore my
72 square..
I dig the post 70 type 3's.
here is my car. Will be getting engine pics soon, just replaced the fuel pump and fuel lines was all I need to get her running, cheap and easy to fix!

Thanks man!
I want to lower her 2 inches or so, just so the wheels are slightly tucking.
Then paint her sumatra green:

Get some thin white walls, venitians and just go with a standard low key stock interior (black probably).

The rear panels are a bit trickier to remove compared to the front panels, as you have to take off the rear bumper to remove the actual panel... But
yeah man, I think theres about 15 screws or so, was pretty quick and easy.
