Of course there was some body work to be done post collision and the fact that it is an old car.. I knew the car had been in a front end collision at some point and at another point I tried to drive the car through a garage door(true story) then there was the time my brake master pushrod pin fell out and I rearended a rental car.......So needless to say there was some panel beating and some striaghtening to be done. So some pics... http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2209/176/9/738905073/n738905073_5925641_2845.jpg Fixing beetle door crack syndrome http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2209/176/9/738905073/n738905073_5925640_2554.jpg At this point I REALLY considered putting a ragtop clip into it. But the car being so dry, clean and original I couldn't bear it....... http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2209/176/9/738905073/n738905073_5925639_2274.jpg http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2209/176/9/738905073/n738905073_5925634_632.jpg And then Valentines day 2009 3 years after it entered the body shop we got colour! http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2209/176/9/738905073/n738905073_5925637_1517.jpg http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2209/176/9/738905073/n738905073_5925636_1214.jpg http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2209/176/9/738905073/n738905073_5925635_925.jpg I know its nothing nearly as epic as Don Aries and the Heb but it was to me! -Kirin Jacobsen 1962 Resto Custom Seabert. _______________________________________________ vintagvw site list [email protected] http://lists.sjsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/vintagvw _______________________________________________ vintagvw site list [email protected] http://lists.sjsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/vintagvw
