First blog post ever!

Greetings, and thanks for stopping by!

This blog is about my restoration journey for my 1963 VW Beetle.

Meet Roscoe

Roscoe is a 1963 VW Beetle. It was originally Beryl Green.

This car is very special to me. My grandfather owned this car and I remember riding in it when I was a kid. I used to have to sit in the back seat as the front passenger seat was replaced with a platform for his dog, GB (Golden Boy, a retriever) to sit.

In need of much attention.

Grandpa Harry (middle name Roscoe) was a very special man to me and I love him very much. He passed away in 1994 and the car went to my mother. She drove it for a few years before letting me have it. I picked it up from California and towed it to Oklahoma where I drove it daily for a few years.

Roscoe has been parked for a few years now as the repairs that it needs are extensive.
