I don't think the wife would go for that on her ghia!
I am glad you brought this back up though. We have continued to make progress on this. We have cut out all of the rust and patched in new panels in most locations. I still have to patch the driver's floor and a section above the right rear wheel well. We've started to make good progress on sanding it down to metal too. Still have to install the front fender, cut out and replace the entire front nose and do some patch work on the right fender. Then we can start fixing all the small dings and dents and start on paint work. Getting there. Hoping to drive it this upcoming summer still.

Looks great! Looks like the perfect time to chop that top a couple inches.
