Plan is to sort all the rust, install a ragtop similar to the pics, slap on the AirEvo boots pilfered from my Karmann, lower with Fresh Kustoms drop
plates, narrow and adjust the front beam, throw in some plugs & oil, jif up the saltnpepa interior & drive.

Reminds me of my first car a 65 Wagon
same trim was a nice car to drive
I fitted a set of Twin carbies of a 1600 engine and a set of Sonic extractors
I see yours still has the single carby
Going to be a BIG project

You are certainly not afraid of a challenge. Great to see another VW being rescued.
