Re: '72 Lowlight Bay
Congrats! Nice find. What are your plans for her? Resto or RAT?

Re: '72 Lowlight Bay
Going to keep her rat style until the finance allows for a resto. Pretty much everything is there except the two back door catches and side mirrors. Else everything is original.
Isn't that what you'd expect from VW?
