1973 Volkswagen Beetle - Baja Bug

1973 Volkswagen Beetle - Baja Bug

This car recently went through a "pan off" build and has approx. 3000 miles since completed.

The car and cage is custom painted and hand pinstriped. The engine and transmission were built professionally and have approx. 3000 miles. This is a super clean. well built. Baja bug! All body/window rubber. seals. felts etc are new.

The only thing reused was the rear/side window glass. doors. windshield wiper motor. body & pan. Everything else was replaced! The car is not full of "holes" where the cage and shocks come thru the body. It was done very clean.

Its hard to find one thats had this much love and attention to detail. Cost to build was over $24. 00 in parts alone. It is street legal and I have a clear Nevada title. It was previously titled in CA. Body and pan have matching numbers. Almost all driving was done on the street and the vehicle runs & drives great!
