I have a 1970 Yukon Yellow Bug. I had the engine rebuilt 3 or so years ago. It's a 1641 dual port. Runs very strong. It was my DD during the winter but now it sits more than it rolls. I need to do a little restoration. I'm searching for a local painter (East Bay, CA) that will do a good job without braking the bank. Anyone know of any let me know.

The interior is becoming trash but that's pretty easy to replace. I think the sun has done some damage to the interior. I really need to get a good all weather cover for this winter and perhaps take the dog for a spin in it.

Of course everyone already knows that they are great cars. Driving it is like stepping back in time. And please don't be in a hurry. Still loads of fun. Maybe I'll take a current photo and post it later.

The value of these cars keep rising too. Can't wait for the mini restoration.
