My ride thus far. a 68 bug

[fattmoley]

Hello all, I'm new here and to forums in general.  I picked up a autostick by accident but love the driving so I'm scoffing at the device to switch it normal mode.  I have very little mechanic experience as I've always been a body guy, but this project I'm flying solo.  Thanks in advance for all the advice and help catching me up to speed on how this all works and hopefully I can help out in some way as well.
Here are some pics of my ride and how it has come together more or less.

It's mostly a 68'.

That looks crazy, in a good way, enjoy the car!
