Mike,

" but since I am not
skilled at body work I was not able to get it to pass
the PA state inspection"

Would you like to elaborate on this. Since SD does not have state
inspections, I'm confused what a the body condition would have to do with
safety, unless it about floor board rust.
Stupid minds want to know!

Gee officer, I didn't know that my blue dented fender was unsafe on my red
car.

Alas, I too had a Type 3 wagon. Drove the piss out of for years for the
price of oil changes and coat hangers to keep the fenders and 1/4 panels
wired on to frame pan.. Otherwise they would flap in the wind with a
tremendous noise.
Excellant brakes, suspension, windows etc. No heater acct the heater tubes
were rusted away, but the floor pan was good. Go figure.

For my Guzzi content, I was given a beautiful spare rear fender for my 700
yesterday,either it was a sunday thing, or I'm a nice guy.
