Looks good! What shape is it in now? You could post pics of your progress and let everyone follow along with you.

I assume that the pics in your profile are of the car you are speaking of. Where is it located, what does it have inside and what are you asking for it?

I know this is late, but did you ever get your issue addressed?

As most people have moved over to Facebook, there isn't much traffic here anymore. You might get a better response if you post your request on the Club Facebook page. In the mean time, if you need help with general VW type build issues, the VW Beetle & Karmann Ghia 1954 thru 1979 Haynes Repair M...

I don't know who produces the single hoop roll bar, but for safety reasons, I would recommend having a 4 or 6-point cage built for your buggy.
