Pretty nice. Clean bugs are hard to find in these parts. I'll have to post a pic of my buggy soon. I have an Empi Imp fiberglass body dune buggy on a shortened '67 pan.

Nice transformation! (Ala MTVs "Pimp My Ride"!) ;)

Looking forward to restoring mine yet again...the Texas outdoors practically ruined the car in only two years! :(

Very nice. Looks like you did a great job. I had a 56 VW Bug (circa 1965) with a rag top sunroof. It was a lot of fun. Wish I had it today. I had big oversize snow tires on it. I never got stuck in the snow no matter how deep (I live in Penna.). Enjoy and have fun with it.

Nice – I’ve got a 63 ragtop sunroof. In my Gyrogearloosian way I’d have be draw to be drawn to the before paint job though. My car is totally tits, but only on a close second inspection.

May you never buy our bus, gone 30 years ago but never to be forgotten! You could probably smoke the interior. A drug dog would go catatonic from 50 ft downwind, probably even after 30 years.

I did a search online but didn't find anything worth while and ebay was even less fruitfull :D

You're looking for an EPROM burner, I think. Couldn't find one? Heck, EPROM's are a cottage industry in Canada. Try one of those cable/satellite pirate shops.

Congrats on the bug looks great

Nice work. I would like to get hold of a Thing myself. Unfortunately, they are even MORE trashed than Bugs, or VERY expensive. :(
