Here are some pictures i took just after paint about 3 days ago. the engine is an 1835cc with weber carb.. i bought the car for 420 dollars practically a shell and put her together myself. im starting to work on interior and ill post more pics as i come along on my project.
If you have any comments or suggestions they would be appreciated.

Except for those oversized mid-'70s Super Beetle front turn signals.
Is the stinger exhaust going to be legal where you are?
im in Los angeles and the cops are cracken down on the rice rockets here but they havent said anything about mine yet. thanx for the advice about the turn signals.

The '68-'69 turn signals were a one-off deal. Hard to find used, and no aftermarket pieces available. However, the '67 lights will work.
there is a shop near by that sells them but im not sure how much they are. So today i was driving home from work and on the way a car with some idiot driver hit me from the side... after he hit me i turned around and tried to get his insurance but he ran.. i have some fender damage on both passenger fenders and some paint is scratched... i filed a report but it probably wont help.. now i get to spend more money on the paint and bondo for the body.. i need 400% more luck...

THAT SUCKS OUT LOUD! I hate it when that happens! Sometimes it's fast/cheaper to get new fenders than try to fix w/Bondo. I haven't had many single color cars (seems money always goes to kids/house/wife's car) but I just painted mine and I'm real paranoid now.
Good luck, if you see him again let us know and we'll all gang up on him and beat the $h#t outta him.
