Looks like a fun car but will never be valued as a collector.
Some mods can be really good like 12V. The problem with modded cars (especially low price/value ones) is you don't know if the mods were hack jobs or done right. Fresh paint may be hiding a poor prep job that will flake and fade in 6 mos. Re-wired electrics are great unless you have a rats nest of stuff that never make sense and ghost voltage drains. Likewise with the motor although rebuilding a v-dub is cheap and easy. Look at the seller as much as the car to decide if you are walking into a money pit.
