This 1959 beetle was on the lot at Sayre Volkswagen during the "Roseburg Blast" that basically destroyed the city of Roseburg Oregon.

I thought it would be good to provide y'all some history and reasoning behind some of the choices I am making for this project.

Well after reading the 59 Ragtop post from Redjames mine is going to be much more basic. I am not touching much of the outside to keep the historical value of the car.

Here are the pictures of what I am starting with.
