    I still miss my first car, a '65 type 1, 36 years after it was stolen. Less than 10 hours after I spent the entire day installing $1,500 worth of new parts (at 1984 prices), the car was gone. Worst gut punch of my life at that point.

      There's nothing about this car you wouldn't be able to do yourself, save possibly the motor but you could get much closer with parts you can literally bolt on after dropping the engine onto a milk crate in your garage.

      he said $5500 in the video. sounds like a custom engine to me; but you could skip that and swap in a subaru engine worth about $1000-$2000, put out about 150-200hp

    My first car was a 61 or 62 ragtop. Had a lot of dents,and the engine was in the back seat. did all the work myself at age 14.4 to drive on my 16th birthday. It was painted gold,and I wore the JC Whitttney catalog out, as I earned money to buy stuff. Looked like a show car,and had many offers but would not sell it. Finally traded it for a MG then had to sell it for more reliable transportation of a 68 camaro. Now I own 18 VW's, and stopped buying them so I can get all of them restored or resto-mods. m Squarebacks, Karmann Ghias,and bugs. Have not found a solid enough bus yet. Have to love these cars. Nothing like them.

      Nice! My friend Zoe has a 59 Shes had since highschool (1984) it's a European model with semaphores, and a rag top. I've never seen another one. I had a white 64 in highschool that I ran into the back of a Chevy Impala Scottsdale PD cruiser while pulling into the school parking lot. Not my proudest moment! LOL I got some new front sheet metal and had it painted Chrysler plumb crazy purple and put centerlines on it. Dove it for a few years after highschool, and sold it. Fun cars!

      My first car was a '60 beetle. Paid $100 for it in 1970. Had a ton of fun with it, but it had a bad habit of vapor locking in the summertime. The fun ended when an airforce guy slammed into me. Insurance gave me $50 for it.
