Actually started working on my '64 Beetle. It has 98000 miles on it.
Took apart the front hubs and plan to re-grease the bearings & all
grease points. The car needs paint, interior re-done, fuel system
cleaned out, and I have a spare engine to put in it while I get my
current engine rebuilt. The tires are probably dry rotted too.
