The car is still in "paint and body mode" the guy that did the paint and body did like a 80% job, he didnt give it 100%, so we are having another shop redo the paint and body. If you are going to build a high end bug, you want it to look high end. so thats where we are with it.  We will get more pics up with progress soon.
