This looks like Horace, the hate bug from the 1997 made for tv movie The Love Bug. Great job!👍👍

Oh, what a fantastic & awesome restoration of such an amazing, iconic, cute, adorable, priceless little car!! I had one of these when I was 3 years old; I used him as my first teddy bear; I’d carry “Miles” around with me everywhere my little legs traveled daily. He was my constant companion, my best friend, my conscience, my protector. I still have him on my bedside table. He’s orange, with a white interior

FYI s sunroof is a window on top of the roof hence the name sunroof. What you made was a sun visor!! VW Beetle one of the most if not the most customized car ever. My dad had one in the 80's with a tricked out engine nothing much else. When I drove it on the highway at 80mph the nose would feel like it was floating from side to side It had oversized pistons Not so much as a restoration but a customized but it looks great and you did an excellent job!!! Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up

This is the first video of yours that I've seen and I subscribed at the end. The "Killer VW" looks great, what a transformation. I enjoy your craftsmanship and artistry, they're top notch AR. The only thing I might have done differently is put smaller tires on the front and big wide tires on the rear. Great viewer content seeing all of your additions to the car as you created them. Cheers from this old retired coot living the dream in Tennessee.
