Casa Linda Lace - the Wrought Iron Beetle
October 6th, 2006
Casa Linda Lace is the name of a 1970’s Volkswagen Beetle in Calfiornia. Built in 1985, the Beetle’s body is made of wrought iron.
The Super Beetle body shape was chosen to give it a more modern appearance although it rests on a standard Beetle chassis. Four months of construction, 7000 welds, 2500 curly-cues (each of which took approx 50 hammer blows to shape) and the car was finished.
