Re: 1963 VW Convertible Build

Started fixing the driver side front fender. It had a badly repaired area that had cracked filler and the overall shape was way off.

After stripping it, it was pretty crunched.




Ran it through the planishing hammer, cut out a bad spot on the inner flange and made a new piece, did some hammer/dolly work, then skim coated it.




Pulled just about everything from the trunk so I could clean it up. The old wiring was hacked up so I'll get a new harness.




Picked up a decent pair of original German bumpers for $200 bucks.
