My 1966 Beetle

This is my 1966 Beetle. It was actually badly damaged in Hurricane Katrina. It was under 4 feet of salt water. The engine is trashed (new one has been built). The transaxle has a hole eaten through it. My 1969 Beetle was destroyed also. It is gone, but I did a heater channel replacement on it, the how I did it is still on my web site.

Hole in transaxle

The trans axle had water salt water in it also and it ended up eating a hole in it from the inside out. A new transaxle is being built and the brakes and electrical harness also need to be replaced as all the wires are corroded and the connectors have turned green and are falling off.
