Hello, i am new to this forum and i just bought this 1973 Beetle earlier this month (1/17/13). I am new to VW but i know what to look for when i bought it, i.e rust, leaks, holes and so on... Body is overall in good shape and rust free. it has a couple of dents on the hood and fenders, but something that can more than likely be popped out. However, i am wanting to restore this and repaint it a different color. The Engine is seized and i will have my mechanic take a look at it (i am not mechanically inclined).
Any opinions as to where i should start? I am still debating if i want to start sanding the car down OR let a professional take care of that... I began by starting to order the weather strips i will be needing later. I am ordering a couple each week.
Please let me know ideas, comments or any advice! thanks again!
