1977 Super Beetle Convertible

This 1977 Super Beetle Convertible looked great when it came to me, but one look under the car showed major rust issues. This is a great "Watch out buyers" example of how a car can look good, but still need many thousands of dollars of repair done before it can be safely driven. This car will be set on a restored chassis, and while the body is off of the floorpan, all rust repair will be completed.
