teardown

Finishing the chassis paint and installing the new narrowed front beam.

Today I'm taking the body off the bug, so I can make room to work on the chassis over the winter.

Before the weather gets too cold, today I'm starting the first round of body filler on the fenders.

Today the girls are helping me strip the interior of the bug prepping for body work.

The fenders have been media blasted, so today I'm cleaning them and sealing with a coat of epoxy primer.

Today I'm applying some fiberglass filler over welded areas on the fenders, prepping for primer.

Today I'm removing the doors and stripping them down to prepare for body work and paint.

Today I'm doing some rough body work - welding cracked fenders and using a hammer and dolly to remove dents.
