Thanks, I do too. The fender that I took off seems to have lived a hard life. I'm no body man but I don't think it'll buff out.
I didn't do any hands on work on the Bug today but I worked on it and my 63 plenty. I drove over 250 miles chasing parts. The best thing about CL is that you can get some smoking deals. The bad part is that you have to drive all day to pick them up. I left the house at 7:45 and got back about 3:00 with the truck loaded. I scored a nice 4 point rear roll bar to replace the stupid one that's on there now that looks like it just had a shot of Viagra. I got a complete new front brake system and a full Baja kit, I just needed the hood for my 63 but the guy said to take it all. I can sell the stuff that I don't need and get some money back. I only spent $350. New, the parts I need would have been over $1500 with shipping and I wouldn't have the extra parts to sell.
