Well I’m a owner of a VW Beetle 69 but got it for free Comes with a very good floor pan, 2 x new heater channels, suspension, gearbox and a spare shell for roof plus other repair panels.
My mate has owned it since the 80’s. Been sorting his dads old workshop out as I’ve got use of it to do my cars in

Bookmarked! Love a good Beetle resto... might have need of some of the more obscure bits of the spare shell that you won't need too if you're not the opposite end of the country! I've found a couple of scanned pages from the VW factory repair manual with key dimensions when you're ready to do the channels. I've not braced my shell yet - I'm going to twist the shell around and into the right place before I brace it. Then I'll cut out the channels and bulkhead and drop them into place on the ' pan before lifting the body on top.

Is it wrong that I really like that van thing? Weirdest part is that I feel without the peaked visor thing, I don't think the entire thing would work, but with it... it's perfect

I'm not a fan of the peak or the bonnet, but I'd like to see the van built as a full-on Pro Mod drag car, complete with tube chassis and 600bhp turbo motor!

I’m not a fan of the van back or the bonnet. I’m into my Alfa’s so have a 1.7 boxer engine and have a adapter plate for it to fit onto VW Beetle gearbox. Also have a 1980 Vw t25 aircooled camper and the misses has a 1980 Vw golf mk1 cabby

well, there was a Jeans Beetle, why not a Jeans T3? Looks like that bus deserved its own thread, or did I miss it? I'm currently in the middle of scraping all that old glue cack off the cab of ours.... VW sure used some powerful medicine in that gunk back then

Funnily enough, my wife has got an '80 T25 and sold her mk1 Golf cab a couple of years ago! Alfa power is not something I've ever seen in almost 25 years of Volkswagening, in the flesh at least.
