Anyone know of a good shop around these parts that restores old Beetles? Father-in-law has an original 1967 Beetle that needs quite a lot of work. Sounds like a money pit
i had a '68 ghia, looked fair on the outside, but after digging into the car, pretty much the entire pan, and most of the body needed replacement (rust started really gets these cars), then the engine needed considerable work (worse if it's ever been over heated, or the valve seats heavily erroded) ...for how low $ a rust free example might be, that might be the way to go
