ive gotta take my rental car back tomarrow my sl is in the shop.........my wife loves my truck so i need something to drive LOL,,,,plus i gotta finish this one up before i buy the oval i may have found one on somba http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/ ... ?id=197958
its gonna cost me 700 to ship it.....the wife is cool with me buying stuff as long as the one im working on is done........

ok for the next stuff i need

if anyone has an interior set for sale let me know...i also still need a deck lid,,,, If not i found Jbugs to be the best deal unless yall know someone cheaper im getting it done in about 2 more weeks...i just have to order the kit i think im gonna go tan tweed on tan viynal with the full inserts tweed headliner tan and a complete carpet kit also tan,

and thanks to slammer ive got the front beam and arms on the way for the lowering of the car
then im gonna do the back two notches that should put it rite,so after thats done im gonna bag it ,put the turbo in it,and drive it till i get the other motors built.....then ill start over with a diffrent paint sceem it may go orange on white,ive been thinking about just doing the orange on the hood top and decklid and white on the finders and sides im not sure yet......it should be all finished within a month..........this is the basic idea:Image



Then its oval time for me LOL..............Ive just gotta get my daily driver done first...then i can take my time and build a really nice ride.....Thanks for the suggestions guys keep them coming ........



So do you think your rushing this project to get to your oval??????
Ovals can be found day in day out;you can always find them...
Personally I would pass on another big project like the one you thinking of buying from Anthony and Alex they have been trying to sell it for over 5 months;and you haven't seen nothing until you start restoring an Oval$$$$$$

I would save up and get something in better shape for a few thousand more.
Something like this..

I have to agree with the idea of buying one thats at least complete because when you start having to buy the parts that may be missing it may cost you the same amount or more in the long run
