Your startin to make me feel bad about not doin more to Pige.
Jodie's Beetle is comming along slowly, finished the paint on the body, just have to do inside the boot and the engine compartment. and you think yours is slow, it's 18 months for me and there is still no end in sight!

Gotta go be 4 d money in dis telstra puter dies on me again....and d space bar not working well:jesus
....just spent $'s putting spaces in....so u could read...ok maybe just cents...

helloo !
Everything looking Good !!!!! 😎
how much you think you'll spend on Bel all up (estimate) ? its so nice!@ lovin it ! hope to see it soon on the road !!!!!!!!!! I know you're willing to put the money & time in.... saw you @ nathan's place if u remember me.... getting those original Vdub parts! all worth it !
Will you drive it out regularly ....?
I can feel u'll take good care of Bel :kiss
ikube thanks so much.... Hey it was nice to meet you...your bug is very hot..how many do you have?
As for the cost of restoring Bel...I don't know if I'm gunna be game enough to add it all up...but a big lot of $'s...and still going.... It's so hard to cut corners once it's started.... you don't want to have to go back in a couple of years do something else...she'll be smick....and I can just enjoy her....
She'll be my cruisy weekend girl...... don't want to push her like my Type 3 Dr L....he's tough and can take it....
I dropped in on Nathan Sunday on my way home and got the switch for the reversing light...and the chrome strips for interior panels......
My restorer is asking me to stop buying now!! 😀
Hey but some things you just need to have.....
buy buy buy!!!
lookin sweet Jen
Don't encourage me Costa....I may have 2 live in her by d time she's finished...... 😀
heh..i hope my type three turns out nice..have to do some work when i got home..pics for you guys asap of course.
how's it all looking jenz?

Thats one sweet ride, I'm glad I don't show stock beetle any more. The old trophy cabinet will be chockers after her first show.
Thank u....I'm hoping she'll be finished before the DOVW....but starting to worry....things seem to have slowed down and time is flying so fast...going around today to see them....
Hope she is finished by then. I may be able to make the trip down and see her up close and personal!

Cool Rob hope you can make it down here..... :thumb
Thats unreal....I want to know if vw's owners obsessiveness is a thing that grows the longer you have had your vw......I've only had mine for a couple of months, and though I love it, I doubt I'd ever have the time, money or inclination to undertake what you have. Though perhaps, when I've had it for a while, who knows ???
She's gorgeous Jenz, unbelieveable.
Hey Jen you need some new front and rear screen alloy trims.... Bel will look great ... but you did promise !!!!
lol......I know I did .... so had better not get them Dave even though they would make her a definite show winner :P
Saw my girl today....she has eyes again.....I fell in love with her eys the first time I saw her...and stroked her eye brows today...she's looking like my old bel again
.....
who was asking about original eye brows a month or so ago....I took pics of Bel's up close
...
....
it was me that asked 🙂
lookin sweet Jen
...
The deck lid is back on with the number plate holes welded up and d bracket on 😎
A pic of the reversing light switch that screws onto the back of the speedo.....😎
Fantastic Jen - A brilliant example of what can be done. But... How does it sound.
Can't wait to see it in the shows. They will have to start buying bigger trophies with a standard like this.
Well done.

To tell u d truth Bronze I haven't heard her engine turn over since early Feb... :o
She was sounding sweet back then....
They are talking of driving her to the trimmers rather than trailer her....he's not too far away....
Must admit I got butterflies at the thought of her going on the road....my baby!!
Looking fantastic Jenz an absolute credit to yourself and those involved in the rebirth.
Just need to lower it now.
lol......you have such a one track mind kafer!! 😀:P
yeh jenz..i love the eyes too. very retro..just very cool in general. amazing what can be acheived with a coat of paint and a *little* bit of work ehehe
