The shell had one 2" x 2"x 4" long rust hole in front of both rear wheels (quarter areas) that were cut out and replaced with new metal that was seam welded in and then sealed inside and out. This beetle was completely disassembled bolt by bolt and reassembled using all new bolts. The pan was sand blasted, sealed, then raptor urethane bed liner was used on underside of pan. The top of the pan was coated in black urethane paint ensuring a long life. The shell was soda blasted inside and out, repairs and modifications made, then inside and out of shell was coated with a urethane bare metal primer and then coated with a urethane base coat and clear coat, buffed to a wonderful luster with longevity in mind. Undersides of fiberglass body kit coated with raptor bed liner to help against stones from damaging parts. The suspension was totally rebuilt using new urethane bushings, ball joints, struts in the front, springs, tie rod ends and bars, steering gear box, and a custom upper strut stabilizer bar added for handling.
