History
This is my 1968 Beetle, my first car and my first resto mod.
I've always been a huge fan of aircooled VW's since I could remember, both my parents had a Beetle each and a family Kombi. So when the time came I started saving up and purchased my '68.
I restored it in 2015 with a friend once I saved up a lot more. We pulled it all apart, stripped the awful acrylic paint off and found many obstacles presented by previous owners.
This Beetle means the absolute world to me, I'm sure many other car enthusiasts can relate.
