Surprised this wasn't on here yet....if it is, sorry, I did a quick check.

At least the incorrect gas cap has no rust...
 
Nice wheel and tire combo ;)

I like it and it's in the old 'hood. Looks like a good honest car and very complete.
Certainly not a project not for everyone, but could be a great start for someone.

Go poke with a stick!
 
Interesting car. Car looks like it's actually more solid UNDERNEATH than topside:

Each time I see such bubbling I'm wondering if this is a fact or fiction, Karmann (not only) was buying steel from behind Iron Curtain.

Looks like your b35 block is a factory replacement?

Came from Carl Nelson...

Edit: I’ve been meaning to call him to get the specs. Ran when last parked (for real for once!).
