    Default Restoration Project: '68 VW Beetle (o\ _!_ /o)

    Hi guy's, I bought my first car back in July 2010 through Pakwheels. The previous owner was about to sell it to a scrapper, but I took it from his hands. It's a '68 VW 1300 Beetle Deluxe. It was standing at my mechanic's workshop for the past four month's after I bought it. Now I've started the restoration process around two week's ago. I am planning on getting a complete restoration. Will update the thread from time to time. Constructive criticism and suggestions are highly welcomed . I plan on making it as original as possible. Here is a picture of the car before the restoration process went underway.

    This seems like an interesting project that should end well.

    Get over the fact that Xli lacks power windows, Its an Xli because it lacks thoose features or else it would be a Gli or an Altis if had all the goodies.
