Not a huge fan of Beetles, but the Variants are nice looking things. I admire anyone who can deal with that level of rot without giving up
Well try this amount of rot! (scroll on down the thread for pics!)

whats the old saying, it'll polish out
great story thanks for sharing it. There are a few pushed over the cliff in Cornwall and the Scilly Isle is famous for its scrap yard.

I love stuff like that, totally bonkers, but what a great back story , being a 57 ,23 window makes it a very desirable model but , just a little more than I'd want to take on... imagine trying to free the engine off........ think it's flooded mate

Totally bonkers, but as they said, with VW valuations constantly rising, it was worth it financially. Crazy
