Yep. While I was building it I kept looking for a squareback again. I'm not needing to sell it, but it the only way I can get one is to sell this. Hate to do it because this a good clean car. :( Because I'm NOT selling my 56 oval choptop dragbug :thumbs:

The car only has a couple of small rust spots. Other than that never been hit, clean floor pans and painted back in 95. Not bad for a work car :thumbs:

Now the racecar... It will be getting torn down to the bare chassis, body stripped and getting an extreme overhaul.

Are you actually going to finish this one and take it down the strip? 8-)

No luck on finding a clean squareback and I figured once I did find one I'll be in the same boat as the bug "replacing everything on it". So Friday I got the bug registered, insurance and it legal to drive. Yes the bug is really clean and one of the nicest work car in the area. :lol:
