its unfortunate that the our kids growing up now missed the aircooled vw generation. I know my kids thought I was crazy when I drug that beat up fiberglass buggy home. There still not sure about it but wait until they go for a wheel pulling ride. I bet they come back with a smile from ear to ear.
In theory its finished or at least in my mind, in reality its a bunch of parts still unassembled in my garage but we are moving forward at least in theory. I now have more invested in new parts than in the original buggy.
