Kenichi Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Greetings from Vista, California. I just completed a restoration of my '69 VW Baja Bug, Gecko Pearlcoat, can't miss it! My daughter just finished high school and inherited her grandfather's '78 Pink Brat that has been parked in his carport in Yuma, Arizona for almost 20 years. Very clean body, almost no rust anywhere, interior looks like new. I'm told there is a starter problem so it's not running, but I think I've found my next restoration project. This one is in seemingly much better condition than the VW so I'm hoping it won't take as long so she can begin driving it. That's my story. I nearly bought one of these new when they first came out. I love these old classics and can't wait to get it rolling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olnick Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Welcome aboard, Kenichi. You found a great place here--folks will give all the advice and help you could ask for. Fair warning however--they will demand to see pictures! Hope your daughter's a Sweetie and appreciates what you're doing for her! Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.

Subaruist Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Here are some pictures of the fabulous pink brat! That doesn't look like a traditional pink that I would expect, but its beautiful! Kinda looks like pink with a little raspberry tint or something. Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
