Hi Tim,
Welcome to our site, glad to have you here and look forward to you becoming a member of the club.
BTW, That is a nice looking bug you have there, mine currently looks like your's did at one time, the lovely primer grey. I have most of the exterior body work done, and I am currently re-primeing it whit one area at a time. I work out of town most of the time, so it is hard to go full force and knock it all out. Once I have it primed I will be doing my own paint job and hopefully have it looking like a new bug! Like I said, I work out of state alot and am unable to make it to alot of functions, but when I do get in town I make all the effort I can to meet up or get to a meeting, so don't worry, if you can only make once or twice, we understand!!
Hope to get to meet you soon and pick your brain about all sort of bug stuff. I have always been a bug fanatic, but just recently my wife purchased a 75 Bug for my birthday and when time allows, I do what I can.
Take it easy, and welcome to the site!!
Larry
