Karens '72 Bug


 

Stock 72 bug with 1300 engine, empi 8's
This was a daily driver up until about 2 years ago, when a new car meant it's sat on the drive virtually untouched .

Before that it had drivers side heater channel, floor, front inner wing, front clip, front wings replaced.
The brakes are also pretty recent.  After stripping it down it was decided to replace the p/s heater channel, 2 rear wing mounting panels and a p/s door. The whole lot was then resprayed in the original Marina blue

     

Next in line is to lift the body off the chassis and sort out some minor rot to a bit of the framehead bottom plate and the rear corner of one of the floorpans. Whilst this is going on the engine will be stripped and checked over. The chassis will then be given a coat of black paint, the rotten beam replaced and any other bits as needed.
