Steve,<br><br>Looks great! Just a quick question. I know you are going with a slightly non-stock look, right? Are you going to put the fender welt between the fenders and the body or leave it out?<br><br>I am not a body guy, but if you are putting the welt in, how will that affect the fit and alignment of the fenders and the body? If your leaving it out will there be any problems with rubbing or chaffing between the body and fenders?<br><br>Bob Jordan<br><br>P.S. I've owned a 59 Bettle for years ( at least 20 years) that I bought from the original owner and parked in a garage for storage. Seeing your car has insired me to get serious about getting my car done!

Wow, I just tuned into this thread and I can't believe the extent of your <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>rust</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->oration. I would love to send a car to you for the full massage. <br><br>And to address the question about battery location posted about five pages back, just switch to an Optima battery. It uses dry cell technology and there's no acid to leak.<!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Oh man, a flat black Rat Rod VW would be SO COOL!!<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END-->Steve, I don't know if you've been hanging with the VW crowd lately, but that look is totally played out. You see at least two new ones show up at every show. It's monkey see, monkey do.<br><br>My vote is for a stock restoration. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :thup --><img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_thumbsup.gif" alt=":thup"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->
Here's a shot of my latest acquisition, a '52 Standard barn find. It looks decent and all the hard-to-find parts are there, but deep down it could use some of Steve's metal magic!<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://granttuttle.freeservers.com/Greg%26PJ/Heike5.jpg" style="border:0;"><!--EZCODE IMAGE END-->
