    Wish mine looked that nice. I’ll probably end up with way more than $15k by the time it looks anywhere near that nice.

      Russ, I know the feeling. :) I stopped counting at 17K.

    hi, i bought 67 vw from a junk yard for a dune buggy project. floor pan is rusted out and body is rough .got to thinking to keep and put new metal in and sanblast the whole body and primer to mabe later sell it as parts or whole .wonder if it would be worth the expense. I think these are incredible cars .and plan to do more projects.

    I was just wondering what kind of front marker lights I need to put on my 67 restoration. Everyone is telling me that they are a one year only lense and housing. I know the bulb holder itself is one year, but I cannot find a picture of the lense and housing to see the difference between it and the 66. Thanks!

      Lewis,
      Thanks for the comment.
      The lenses for the ’56 will actually fit ’67-’67. Here’s an example of what you need.

    Lotus white AND red interior? This is the one I’ve been waiting for. And okay, I’ll be waiting for the next one ;-) Love this thing to pieces!
