Team-BHP is a car restoration forum in India, and one of the members posted his story about this amazing restoration, which was done in 18 months. The end result was the owner forming the Bangalor Beetle Club.

There was a Volkswagen Rally in India yesterday: http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/vintage-classic-cars-india/34750-vw-rally-mumbai.html
But it was in Mumbai, Not Bangalore

Is is possible to restore a 1960s VW Samba Bus that has not been in use for over a decade?
From what I’ve seen, the bus will need a complete revamp, inside-out.
What is the cost of such a restoration job? Please advise.

It’s possible to restore just about anything. I’ve seen nothing but rusted out shells be restored beautifully.
The cost depends on what you want to do. Do you want it customized, or original?
You could spend anywhere from $5,000 - 25,000. Of course, that’s just an estimate. Without having seen the bus or knowing what you want to do with it. It will probably cost more to restore it than to buy it.
