1957 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic Additional Info:

This tricked out 1957 Oval Window Bug is looking for a new owner to take this project I built and make it his own. Over the period of 7+ years I built this bug from the ground up. It’s a pan-off restoration so all rust repair is done. This is a not a show car I still drive it weekly.
