Hey Kim...I'm hoping she'll be ready for DOVW.....
I think I picked the radio panel with chrome strip up at a swap meet....one of those lucky finds...she had a plain piece of metal there when I got her...
What have you got planned for your dash??.......I'm going to have to watch out for it.... 🙂
Today....pop out knobs around the right way...🙂
Fog lights, reversing light...and bumper indicators on...
...
....
The lights are there...just need straightening...later
Hey Jen,
Thats an amazing job that you are doing, :thumb, colours great, bumpers great, everythings great.

daz I'm finding the colour amazing...it looks really different in different light....sorta like a cameleon.... 😎
barls my fingers are crossed for you...I hope so too!!
Jen she is looking mighty fine!! You'll have to bring her up to visit us in Sydney when she's done. :bounce
Thats going to make for one sweet ride.
I've been shopping again for bits and came across this roof rack
It apparently came off of a 58 imported beetle and was an accessory that came with it...it's made in Sweden..
The old guy said it came with the car the day he bought it....
Anyone seen one like it before? It's unusual...and so I got it....
....
Also bought a radio...it needs a good clean up...and to be made working...and is missing a knob but has potential :thumb
Like that rack. Looks like it might be a roof mount ski rack. Hard to know what else you could put on it.
Looks bloody good Jen 😀:bounce
"Tell him 'We've already got one'"
lookin damn fine 🙂 maybe you could screw some planks of wood on to the rack ?? nah i like it as it is 🙂
how kool is the radio you got ! 😀

It's a very different roof rack....really not too sure how effective it will be...sorta nothing to sit things on...they'd have to be long enough to rest and be tied firm so they don't slip off and scratch the nice new paint on the roof....don't think it's the most practicl of racks but certainly different
I love the radio...gunna clean it up...hope to find a knob...gotta be one somewhere.....
Hi Jenz
She's lookin pretty good! The radio's way cool, wish I could find a 50's one for Pige.

Thanks Rob...I dropped in today but nothing had altered so no new pics....I had a couple of little things to drop off to them. They've been busy doing small jobs that came in.... 🙁
Golly it takes a long time...and so disappointing not to see a change....You wonder when you'll get to drive them again....a few months yet....
I visited Bel this morning....things are slow but she is hopefully going to the trimmers next week fingers crossed...
They've still been working on her wiring...so pics of wires...they have her looking very neat...her wiring used to be an absolute nightmare...
The semaphores are in and work... 😎
Tail lights are on....wah hooo!!
...fog lights and reversing light not hooked up yet.......soon
Deck lid is off and those number plate holes welded up...waiting to be painted now as is solid exterior visor which is in primer...
....neat work...
.....
Semaphores finally in...and working......but not black....Ingrid was about to strangle me.... 😀
