Blizzard's rolling rebuild of a 1303 1975
Hello, GL fan's. I'm Erik aka Blizzard from the Netherlands. I got this nickname because of my white aircooled rides.
![]() ![]() ![]() This car is also a project car at the moment. ![]() The chassis is completely done and waiting for the body. ![]() ![]() The body is almost ready to be painted. ![]() However, the 1303 in this topic is Black. ![]() I've learned alot about upgrading a bug on this forum. Now it's time to start my own topic here on the GL forum. I already have a topic on a dutch site but there I won't find the right feedback and knowhow Everybody gets here. In april 2008 I bought the ultimate basis for a GL beetle. A '75 1303. ![]() It was in a bad shape. The front off the chassis was rotten as can be without the wheels falling of. So I replaced the complete front of the chassis. This is not a perfect resto job but a quick fix so I could use this ride as my clubmeeting and test car for brakeconversions and so on. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() After that was done the only place that needed some more welding was under the backseat. ![]() ![]() ![]() That took a few months. The complete car looked like this at the first meeting. ![]() Last edited by Blizzard; April 20th 2010 at 14:50. |
