'75 Standard Beetle on order

« on: April 12, 2007, 07:09:15 PM »
A mechanic at used car dealer & auto repair shop where I have bought two vehicles and had work done is "building" me a 1975 standard Beetle. It has a good motor and he is replacing the transmission (manual with a manual) and rebuilding the front end, etc. He has replaced the floor pans already. He is going to sand blast it inside and out replace all rubber, interior, dash, chrome, etc. It was originally a pale yellow but I am having it painted the bright mustard yellow that I had on an old Rabbit. It will have black upholstery.

It won't be ready for Circle Yer Wagens but hopefully for the Knoxville VW Expo. Now if I can just be patient. I want it yesterday! I will go ahead and join Scenic City now.
