1978 Super beetle convertable... needs help...

Hey, I have a 1978 Superbeetle Convertable that has seen better days. It got taken into a guard rail right before I got it. I have had the thing since I was 16 and now am driving another car due to the temporary nap my bug is taking ... ;) I am now trying to revive it since I don't have to drive it anywhere. Does anyone know of a parts car for it around the Oregon area? Preferably Southern Oregon since the bug is in Grants Pass. I eventually am going to turn it into a woody so I am getting begining body and mechanics fixed now. It needs a transmission and an alternator for sure. Thanks!

try the classifieds section on www.thesamba.com , lots and lots of people selling good, used, Some NOS, parts for air-cooled VW's. Also, if you need another source to compare prices, go look at Ebay.
