Title: '73 Beetle Custom
Post by: rychu79 on July 06, 2014, 08:58:10 am
I am in the process of finishing a project my Father started before I was born 34 years ago.
He had a '73 Beetle Standard that now has a ragtop from a donor 60's Beetle.
A select-a-drop front end and shortened shocks.
I got a hold of a 1773 single-port engine to put in it for now that is in pieces.
I still need front glass because the one I have i split down the middle.

Here are some pics of her current condition:

Unfortunately that is the only one left. The others were stolen before I took possession of the Beetle.. I have plans to put some nice 17x8 wheels on her though.
