not unless you came over !
i never drove it around but to my house
i spent 4 years going through it
floors were rotted out drivers and passengers and in front of the slider
hit on every side
crunched in the front
wheel wells cut out
roof caved in
and new rubber and some glass
rebuilt the doors and did some of the wiring
so i did it all by myself
body ,paint, windows ,wiring ,assembly

it was ! i got my blue bus and a co-worker friend bought the 66 slider he thought he got a deal @ 3000 bucks it hardly ran and brakes were bad so he showed it to me and wanted an honest opinion it was crashed ,dented ,cut ,rotted and on its way to the crusher ! he was kinda pissed and bought a 64 rag top bus from Hawaii another odd ball rare bus so the deal was i do all the work he pays for material and we split the profits but what ended up happening he changed his mind he paid for a ghia i was buying 900.00 and that was to come out of the profits on my side but i horse traded the ghia and $$$ it for the 36 coupe  i did a lot of work on the ghia to make it worth what i got in trade he will give me 500 cash and a rifle to make it all good i can except that so i get 1400 and a rifle total not much but it's all good for me i like buses and VW'S in general all types i think my 63 bug is going volksrod but you guys don't like those  i like anything hotrod this is my 36  |
