My 64 bug realy needs body work. I need to have a vehicle t/f work. I found me a 66 with less need of work on the body. Now I need a place to put it where i can do the work that i must i.e full brakes overhaul, clean the pan, and make everything funtion before I change motors. That is the challenge, but that way I may have the cake and eat it too.

If I decide to sell the squareback WAY down the road I think my next project will be either a type-4-powered late-model German-look super convertible or a 68-70 german-look convertible.
I don't know why but I have a liking for fat-chicks  :P

If more power is better. Then too much is just enough.
Why do it once when you can do it thrice?

Come on Matt, we all now that Jen will not let you sell her car. ^_^

Project \"Red Snapper\" 1956 Fiat 600. Heres some of the progress of the Fiat. The body has been brought to Rudy Feeg. Stefan Feeg has started on the floorpan and has cut alot of it out to weld in new pan halves as well as a rear parcel tray from a beetle. Stefan had to extend the tray out 1\" so it would clear the oil cooler. He does awsome work and I cant wait to see the outcome. Thanks for looking. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanx Brian.
