new 65' beetle project
Bought this 65' bug off a fellow veedubber on this forum, after my partner convinced me to take it on as a project.
Got it home yesterday and started stripping it to find quiet a bit of rust that had been previously "repaired" or more accurately covered up. Just
an opportunity for me to learn how to replace some panels 
have a few pics of how it came and the rust ill be repairing. will continue to post pics as the project continues. Haven't decided on what kind of
look to go for yet just aiming to get it structural and reliable first.
Going to be a long term project between work and full time study!

updates
Have decided to go for a rat look for this car, work completed since last post include new floor section welded in, paint sanded back then given a
coat of Penetrol, rear window put in, headlights cleaned up and some trim put on. Will be pulling the motor out over the next few days to clean it up
and get it running sweet.
