This looks great! Has anyone looked at doing a convertible beetle? Everything should be the same internally, but the installer would not use the rear surround and rear glass. It would be a perminate convertible, but would look really cool!

Been lurking, can you tell me why in this video there is metal above the side fiberglass, when the other more involved build, they seem to countersink rivets and epoxy over? Also is there any more instructions available outside of the videos that come with the kit? I have some skills but i am not a 'car' guy and in particular making sure the car is watertight concerns me a little?

So, what's the weight differences? Like, how much weight do you wind up cutting off and removing, and how much does the kit itself weigh? I'm asking so I can figure weight displacement for my roof rack and bed-side off road spare tire mount and fuel can mount

I own a 01 VW Beetle GLS 2.0 5 Speed and I purchased her for 5K, cash in 2012. I've also put an additional 6K [maybe more] in parts, repairs and mods. Replacing OEM aka factory parts that have failed on a 19 year old car. There's really no difference in someone purchasing a 20K-30K vehicle, whether paying cash or strapped to a monthly car note. The dead notes still are going to be spent, so spend them on what makes you happy. I'm going to purchase a Beetle just for this purpose. So I can have a mini pickup truck. In regards to comment, the reason why the car is $1,500 is because it's based on the Kelly Blue Book approx DECLINING value of the vehicle. Check out the rare Firecracker VW Beetle, I believe only 6 were made. Someone purchased it for around 5 or 6K and they put in 7K worth of worth to bring the car back to it's original quality and it sold at auction for a lil over 14K. Have a wonderful day. Sincerely, Tiffany Martinez and Blueberry aka The Beetle 🌻🚙🌻
