Another VW bug?

Why? What is wrong with me?
Why would I volunteer to build another VW bug? I dont even like VW. (and thats a fact)
I must be sick in the head.

A few years ago I built a very complex mid engine VW bug for a buddy at no cost. In fact I am still working on it for free in my down time. It turned out to be one of the coolest cars i have ever built.

I have been looking to get help in the shop with zero success. Everyone so far has turned out to be worthless. Today I had two people show up unannounced looking for the same job at the same exact time.

First is a guy right about my age who has way more experience than I am even looking for. He knows everything bla bla bla....... but he is willing to take the number I offer so I explain there is also another person here for the same reason, let me talk to them before I decide.

Person number two is a young women, She know more than I expected, has a can do attitude, pulled up in a cool VW baja with a "built not bought" license plate frame and seems to have a genuine desire to learn.

Of course I hired the guy with more experience but I decided to offer the young lady a trade. She is welcome to come in on her off time and work. (For free) I will trade her labor on her VW for all her time at a straight across rate.

Its a good deal for her and hopefully she ends up being a good worker. I don't have much faith in the other guy and he aint even started working yet.. I also remember those times as a young kid going to apply for jobs, some of those jobs changed my life.

So if any of you VW people have ideas for a baja style build please post them up.

Im looking for ideas, pictures anything you got. ( im thinking pikes peak/baja?)
Yes, I have seen the twin turbo LS one. IT IS AWESOME!

Thank you and happy new year!
