Dusted off
Well, Bill B. shamed me into it. <g>
I dusted off the '63 and gave it a quickie wash. Hasn't been on the road in a couple years at least, but ran like a champ (on the old gas in the tank, no less!). Pic of how it looked when I bought it: http://www.nls.net/mp/volks/pics/63_55.JPG During re-assembly after paint: http://www.nls.net/mp/volks/pics/63_55.JPG Speedy Jim http://www.nls.net/mp/volks/
