As i mentioned in my first brief that this car was a 1961 and has same body type/shape as the Oval beetle apart from some of the changes which were made in 1958 as VW moved away from the rear Oval window Bugs to a larger rear window bugs. Now as in this project i am doing the reverse of what VW did and trying to go for an Oval look so i am reverting all the 58-64 changes made by VW.
As part of the puzzle first thing on the list was the complete front section as Ovals had different front sections as compared to 60-64 bugs as my bug is 61 so i needed that. To me rescue came Nasir bhai as he had an old 1959 Bugs front end which he had used in 2012 when he was restoring his 1957 Ragtop Oval bug. He used side panel of that bug and gifted the Ragtop clip out of that bug to someone else. So that front clip was still there at Late Khalid sb's workshop, Nasir bhai asked me to take that if that is of any use to me and i jumped all over it and grabbed it
. As it was lying there in open sky since 2012 but was covered with the front hood/ bonet so survived.
Safdar brought it to his workshop and started working on it, for now thats enough
