Introduction

The chassis (rear) of the 1972 VW Beetle. After splitting the body and the chassis there only was a chassis with the wheels on it. The chassis was alright. Only a few places needed attention.

The chassis (front) of the 1972 VW Beetle. At the side you can see a piece of metal plate that was used to "repair" the heating channel.
