No more eggs for me. Replaced 65 signals with early bullet housings.

 Re: Rick in Springfield
Rick, Are you planning on painting yourself? Are you using a base/clear or a single stage? I plan to paint my '65 this summer myself but have never done it before. Please post detailed info on the bodywork/prep/filler/prime/paint if you can. Mine won't be a super shinny custom job I just want it equal to what the factory put out in '65. Waves, runs, shotty tape lines and all. Thanks, Roy

 Re: Rick in Springfield
It will be base/clear and I will not be doing the painting. I do prefer the single stage over the base/clear but that's another topic. This body shop has now painted 4 cars for me over the last 20 years and I have been more than satisfied with all of them.
I did do most the metal work but needed a real Dr to fix my scabs.
If you like I will forward info on the bodywork/prep/filler/prime/paint. I plan to pick it up this Friday as they are going to shoot it tomorrow. I plan to post more pics soon.

Yeah we usually camp in it a lot. However it's currently down as the wasserboxer heads are leaking. I'm planning on converting it to a 1.8 inline 4 jetta engine.
