1962 VW Beetle Baja – Project – July 2010

“Froggy” Named by the previous owner’s
The car didn’t have very much rust at all.
Car full of the parts.
I had to install a beam to load the car for transport.
At least it came with the parts to put it back together.
It took a good hit as a Baja and bent the beam.
A little metal work and the front will fit again.
It was sitting on blocks and the bent beam was laying next to the car.
This project is ready for an engine.
Not pretty, but hey, it’s a Baja!
Coil over shock reinforcements?
The rear end was adjusted back up to (Baja) height.

The car wasn’t complete on pick up.
The only rust was in the rear of the car.

The cars always look better with bumpers.
I came across a correct decklid.
The front end raised up all the way and correct front signals added.
