Description

Ultimate Cal-Look weekend warrior VW.
She's a '73 obviously back dated to look like an older model. The prior owner was a body and paint man and this car was his baby. He worked over 3 years modding this car and painting it. Pictures don't do it justice.
Body mods include:
Dechromed
Early front and rear aprons (the rear apron unbolts making engine work much easier)
Early front hood (with 4 tab VW emblem)
Fiberglass rear 'W' decklid
Bumper bracket holes filled
Grafted in '62 ragtop, done right
Early post style antenna
Side rear air vents removed
Side gas filler door removed ('67 style gas tank installed)
'67 style rear tail lights with original Hella lenses
Front parking lights & turn signals relocated inside headlights
Replaced, and rerouted, front hood pull release
Early style door hinge driver side outside mirror
Beautiful, perfect Polar white paint - 2 stage - color sanded down to 2000 then polished shines like a mirror.

If you know what the interior of a late model bug looks like, you'll be able to see the extensive modifications to the interior of this bug.
