It's slow going. But it will get done. I did pooch one of my trim pieces for the door. Thats a quick $50 down the crapper.

Just an update on the Beetle. The body is completely sanded down, the boot area sealed up with some Por 15 and also por 15 the fuel tank. Now I started pulling the old front beam so I can install my Ultimate Beam from Airkewld. Cant wait to see what kind of ride hight I can get. :unibrow:

For now there is no plan for paint. Maybe just a clear lacquer later.
