Story:

This is my latest personal project of mine to start off 2016.  A Classic Vintage 1954 VW Oval Window  Ragtop Sunroof Beetle, shipped into our shop ready for resto.  The car was in a garage for 30 years or so in Ohio.  An original relic ready for glory.

We were contacted back in August of 2015 about the car.  The 2nd owner who has owned the car since 1962 passed away and the son and daughter in law inherited the Bug.  They contacted me to see if I would be interested.  How could I say “no?”  =o)

I will be having updated video and pics as this car goes through the restoration process.

WATCH US BUILD the ORIGINAL 36HP MOTOR to this BUG HERE!
