Question gauging intrest...

back when i was first joined the army and was deployed with money and no where to spend it, i got a 69 vw bug. i paid $1500 for the car and put about $3000 into it and just never finished it. it is a total project car. some of the things i did was:
(2) 2 barrel 40mm carbs
bore and stroked the engine
cam
exhaust
rims & tire
baja body kit
tons of extra **** i never got around to doing because the LS1 took all my attention away from the bug.

i was just seeing if there are anyone maybe looking for a baja/muddin car. it has been sitting at my dads house for about 2 years because ive been over seas and i dont have any pictures at the moment. let me know if you might wanna check her out.
