I have no intention of ever Painting the car, theres actually a bit of a story behind it:

It was found in SHedd Oregon, small farm town. The car broke down and the original owner just parked it. after all the years went by of sitting, Blackberry bushes covered the car so you actually could not see it at all. The old man died and the estate went for sale. The person who bought the property was clearing out the shrubs and blackberries and there it was! after 30 Years of sitting there!
It has since had a Volks Fab 4' Narrowed Adjustable Beam, CB Performance Dropped Spindals, the Rear dropped 1 Inner Spline, a set of Original Raders and now JGE Torkers. Engine wise it is now running a 1641 with Twin genuine Italian Webber 36's, 4 into 1 Ceramic Header and Single Quiet Pack. Oh and new Interior. I also have all the Original Papers and Invoice.
It was feature in the June 2006 Volksworld Magazine with a 5 Page Feature and A3 Size Centre Page Poster.
If that's the case - keep it that way. I was just wondering about safety. It doesn't change anything on fact it's one beautiful car and I envy you
