1973 Squareback Restoration Begins

We're getting started restoring Miss Judy, the Burtons' 1973 Type 3 Squareback. First step after the mock up to check clearances for the suspension (wheel offset, etc.) is disassembly. Got a twist on a very helpful tip for anyone about to disassemble a classic car for restoration.
We're still hiring. Call 256-828-2123 if you want to come build Dubs.
See you April 9-10, 2022 at Bug A Paluza in Chattanooga, TN.

What Happens When You Cross an Engineer with an Artist?
Easy - you get Spook. A vintage steel restoration guru with a passion for paint, Spook dreamed of Airkooled Kustoms long before opening the shop in Hazel Green in 2004.
The mastermind behind the proprietary processes that yield darkside dubs that Volkswagen and Porsche enthusiasts drool over, Spook doesn’t do anything halfway.
Ask him about buying a classic air-cooled vehicle made by Airkooled Kustoms, and you’ll probably be surprised to hear him advise against it.
See, the process is long, it’s expensive, and it requires a level of commitment few would-be buyers possess.
The process is not cheap. It is not for the faint of heart. If you CAN settle for anything other than driving an Airkooled Kustoms Classic Volkswagen or Porsche, you should. If settling is simply impossible, you should contact us and get your dream car onto the always-full production schedule.

What no courage identifying at have been tossed in the bin! That is when you need a weegee broad . Or Ouija broad to talk to the VW spirits.. Looking forward to Squareback restoration. Take care and enjoy the weather.

[@AirkooledKustoms]

With some parts, that may be the only way! The Square should be a great build. Thanks, Gary!
