Hey,

that sure is one impressive read not to mention one impressive restoration. There is no point me going on how good it is and praising you up as i feel that everyone else has already done that. So instead, i'm gunna cheat and say i'll 2nd all the positive comments posted over the last 9 pages. Nice work. Looking forward to seeing more photos of the finished product. 😎

Kind regards
Ryan (aka - blue_62)

FUSENTAST you have very good tast in colour ..... very sweet oval you have there 😎

Was it the original colour?

I love the Strata Blue......the blue vinyl with white piping will look so nice in your beetle

I love your wheels....I was looking at them in a mag today....

Do we ever stop looking at new things and ideas?

I just picked up the door trims from 65busser today....they can up so nice....Thanks Brad!!! :kiss

Brad had already done Bel's seats for me in the colour combo she originally had ....red and grey with white piping.... before I'd decided on a paint colour...her original paint was off white... she was sky blue when I got her....I like blue so looked for a period blue ......... I think the colours will go OK together

I held a test panel against upholstery before deciding and it looked good.....my fingers are crossed that it will work together....

Goodness I'm getting nervous it's been nearly 10 months since she was a complete car

It is getting to that time of year were they will be saying after Christmas....had it done so many times to me...

Paddo it is certainly feeling like waiting to give birth to a long overdue baby....beginning to crawl up the wall a bit now it's getting close ...... I won't it all over NOW!!

Dropped seats n door trims in today and went over more stuff for her.....

The semiphores and indicators look cool working together.......so festive :rudolf

Don't ask about Bel today!!!! :cry

She had windscreen washers when I got her....and wasn't thinking that a 58 never had them FARK!!!!!

AVWPC rang to ask about her bottle....they didn't realise either....but the one she had was the sort that fits into the spare.....it always just hung....I didn't have pins n didn't realise it was for a 4 hole wheel :jesus

Could get a later model bottle bracketed in near the brake fluid reservoir but have decided to take the washers out at a later date now........would ask them to try n do it now but she wasn't going to be finished until Saturday arvo now as it is :cry

It was something I just didn't look into or think about...n it wasn't picked up by anyone before now....I rang a friend to find out the bad news
