Re: 1963 VW Convertible Build
I scrubbed out the trunk, it cleaned up better than expected. I was planning on scuffing and clearing it to bring out the color but I don't think I'll need to now.
Shot a couple coats of primer on the fender. I blocked it out tonight and will shoot it and the other fender again tomorrow.
The interior and a ton of other parts arrived today. Went with grey and ivory since I'm not crazy about red/tan cars. Plus I was able to get matching grey floor mats instead of plain black so that should brighten up the interior a little. I cheaped out and bought the less expensive synthetic carpet... I didn't think the original style wool carpet was a good idea in a convertible with no top...
