67 Beetle or 71 1302

[vujade]

I decided to go with the 1302.
It would be foolish of me not to start on a project that is such good shape and is already street legal (registered & insured).


The 67 has been a project of mine for almost two years.
I bought it with no floors, no motor and a really bad body.
Since then, I have replaced the floors, added a 1600dp, and swapped over to a nicer 67 body that I picked up for $150.

So the 67 will go on the back burner for now & I will work on it slowly as parts come my way for a good deal.

I will not be making the 67 into a German Look car.
It will probably end up with a Euro Look
Color will probably be Mercedes Silver.
The bumpers, headlight rings & door handles will be chrome.
One piece windows & cal look rubber
17" tuner wheels (probably like Konig Imagines)
Type 1 motor for motivation
Tranny will have close ratio gears for light 2 light action

The 67 will end up similar to this car when it is finished.
