runt_vw Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 hey guys!im new to this, so go easy!Being 15, its hard buying your first car. So many choices. But in the weekend, I scored a 1970's vw buggy, with a minter fibreglass body! for a steal of a price. The motor is siezed, and the floor pan is non existant.. Heres what it got it as, Discuss: //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/41473-runts-buggy/#entry1226270 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runt_vw Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 so there seems to be no engine code before the number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runt_vw Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 things have starting getting pretty bare, with i being stripping it every day after school. finished school now, and just got the body off after getting out dr grinder on all those nasty body bolts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runt_vw Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 Also notice the different front end? suspension setup etc. well, the body has been chopped too, that's why the bubbles are on top of the guards because the shocks sit up high. looking at putting a 1500 front end in, how it should be, and get the bubbles removed, and the fiberglass reshaped. i'll do this when i decide on painting it. Notice the lack of floor pan, the floor just fell out as i was dismantling it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
