Say Hi to the new GL project!!

[Mikey]

Nice start Brian. Looks good for $500. A complete running and driving car is worth at least $1,200-1,500 in our area. Maybe more depending on the body, pans, interior...

I managed to get my Ghia shell, an early body '64 on an IRS pan '74 with brand new uninstalled floor pans, for $300. It's not perfect, but for $300 I can't complain at all.

Very cool. :agree:

I have a special color in mind for my next project if I have a next project in the next couple of years. I'm kind of envious of you being at that stage.

That's pretty cool you have a Sports Bug steering wheel, too.

Hi

Good project. The car looked like it was white in the 1st few pictures. If you made it a twin of your vert you could do weddings etc. with both cars.

Im doing a 74 1303 as a daily driver/ sons 1st car.

wow man what did you strip the car with?

[Phat73VW]

Just some super strength paint remover. It was all done by applying with a brush then letting it sit for a few momemts and then scraping it off with a plastic scraper. It made it really really easy. I wouldnt have done it any other way because it was quite the time saver.

[bow]

sweet im doin that on my next project i sanded mine down
