i stopped by yesterday and took an
"over the fence" look at an older
midget body i had spotted last summer
at an "antique" junk car lot....
the hood looked very straight as did
the rest of it.....
its just a roller as its been mostly
gutted, but i was considering it since
i need a better hood.....
ill get a better look later, with pics....

just a thought.........z

I don't suppose they will just let you take the bits you need?
That's always nice, leave them with the hulk.
There's always something someone else needs anyway.

haha, theyve kinda done that already!
i doubt theyed part it...
its really just a rolling body with tires mostly....z

I lucked out & was first on the scene of a 79 part out.
Got me some good Midget parts & pieces!

Shoot take it all. The scrap yards are giving good money now for steel hulks. Take off what you want and then drag it up on a trailer and sell it for scrap.

If it has tires, it has A-arms, shocks, hubs, rear axle, springs, maybe even disk brakes, steering rack, etc.

ya Donn, it probably has all that, and a windshield frame.
ill eventually buy it for the hood, at least..
but i really want it because it might make a good candidate
for my electric car idea,....it needs ALOT of stuff to be
drivable though, i think its a 6o something.......
ill try to get some pics.....z

Does that windshield frame have a perfect piece of glass in it and come with visors, top latches & rear view mirror?

(mine did)

A guy from my wife's church just bought a Jetta to convert - sent me this link

I've been considering a convert myself. I've found a Bugeye shell that needs a bit of work but is mostly there, and this:
