1963 Ragtop VW Bug

The 1963 VW Ragtop Bug is on its way from Yucaipa, California. It'll take about 18 days to get here, three days longer than usual cause of the holidays. I can't wait for it to get here! Hopefully it'll arrive in one piece. I've decided to start this '63 VW Ragtop blog to document the life of this awesome bug.

how much did you drop the front and the rear end on her?

It was dropped about 3 inches, maybe a little more.. That's how I got it, they had removed some of the torsion leafs. But I have raised both the front and rear recently, the front driver side tire was rubbing the fender. I will be installing dropped spindles to give it a 2-1/2" drop in the front and adjustable spring plates in the rear, very soon. Thanks for the comment!
