Blue74L - what happened to Blue 1 ?
I must have missed this mate - how come you have bought a new L bug and are pulling bits off your blue one to suit ?
I hope you didnt have an accident ? or rust problems.. ?

Bummer - I know how embarrassing and gut wrenching it is to prang a car you've built - I crashed my first beetle (a 67). Wrote off the body (was
repairable, but needed proffessional work to pull the front end straight and the door pillar), but the chassis was straight, and lived again as a 57
baja.
Commisserations to you.
But - every cloud has a silver lining - now there is more than one Red L Bug on the forum !!!!!!!
