    Many years ago my brother-in-law sold his 1956 VW bug. Two months later two cops were at his front door to arrest him. You see, the car was still registered in his name and had been used as the get away car in a bank robbery. He wasn't arrested but it was a fun story he told for years.

    I had one that I completely rebuilt in the early 1970's. I only had to put the final paint over the primer coat. It had new everything on the inside. The inside was painted, new headliner, seats were reupholstered and I rebuilt the engine. Life got in the way with work etc. , then I went off to the Peace Corps. When I came home, I lost interest in it. It sat in my parents barn for many years. Dad wanted it moved out and I ended up giving it away to a man that worked at my father's company. I guess I should have kept, but it is long gone now.

I spent 20 minutes wrapping the cord and pulling the starter in the rain only to realize it had the on off switch ...in OFF of course lol.

I had a truck sitting in front of my mom‘s house in third gear and it was a three on the tree, and it got hit in the back end and it Chugalug all the way down in front of my next-door neighbors house before it stopped!

    Coming along nicely, I am sure it will free up soon. Maybe better with the engine out as she is well stuck. Great video Jason please keep going with this, it is well worth the effort.👍👍
