Topic: my new 69 bug.

I got it a month ago and got it for a good price. The motor needs a rebuild and i swapped the 74 beetle engine to 69 as DD due to my 74 having alot of rust.

Patty yes that is gray primer. I saw some chips and cracks so i am guessing the owner way back then covered with that primer to prevent the rust.
