[T3] My son Ethan's 69 Square...

The inner fender (driver's side) is a gem.  I'd love to find one of those!

Subject: [T3] My son Ethan's 69 Square...

I picked up a 69 Square a few years ago in downtown Detroit with thoughts of 
making a slammed panel.  Promised myself I would not start on it until after I 
finish the Sled, so it has just sat for that last few years.  At the end of last 
year, my youngest son Ethan turned 16 and decided he would like to start working 
on the 69 and use it as his driver when he gets his license.  


We dragged it out of the corner of the garage and he started digging into.  It 
is in pretty good shape overall, but the front end is pretty rusted out.

I scored some really nice rear fenders for it last year...

Fast forward to this past week....

Had a good friend send me a link to some NOS Type 3 inner fenders that were 
local to me.  Sent an e-mail and set up a time to pick them up today.  Turns out 
he also had a good used passenger front fender that I needed for the 69 Square.

These panels will save me and Ethan significant time getting the 69 Square on 
the road.

The fender is a 68, but will work great....it is even the same color as the car.

Guy is a local VW legend.  Had multiple buildings jammed to the roof with 
stuff.  Will definitely call him as I find other parts I need.
