Hoodjax are way cool ! We have some of them on the oval, mind you though, Mr Plod doesn't like em too much!
PBB is looking awesome!
When are we all going crusing? The cabrio is hanging out to make her "blinged up and lowered down" debut!
🤘
ooooh! yeah! and I have brakes again...WOOT!

Time is a great healer. Unless it's a rash, then you're better off with ointment.
😵💫 More pics of chromey bits to soon be put up..... like tomorrow night.....
.... and yay! 1000 posts for my PBB!
Sorry no new pics as promised, PBB decided she hadn't seen the mechanic for a while and was due for a visit... just when I wanted a pic or two of her new chromey bits!! 😂
Had to have the gear change bushing replaced, as trying to put her in reverse really tested my muscles.... I'm so glad it was something that could be fixed! My mechanic rocks. 😀
😵💫your pretty blue bug is absolutely gorgeous
i know not many people like bling but i like your bug alot... mine should be on the road soon
fun in dub's
Well here's a bit more chrome on my PBB...
She loves it all!
She had to visit the mechanic on Thursday. The past few weeks I've been building my arm muscles just trying to get her into reverse gear. Not a lot of fun! It was crunchy as getting it in, so she needed to have the gear shift bush replaced as the old one was screwed.
I still can't get over how short it is to shift into gears now, and there's no huge 'jolt' when she goes into L gear. It'll take me a while to get used to I think! Shows too that it was pretty stuffed all along, but now she's perfect!! 😁

Nice one Laws! You'll have to take me for a ride (or let me drive 😉 ) ya bug soon! I've never been in a stickshift before. I'd ask Damo, but IIIIIIIIIIIIIII don't think Adolf will be very compliant for a while... You coming to the Chapel St cruise?

Of course I'll be at the Chapel cruise! I'm going to everything on that weekend 😂
Wow, what a weekend! BBQ Fri night, Chapel Street Cruise Saturday night and Jamboree Sunday. 😀
I'm bouncing around all over the place because my Pretty Blue Bug won Best Beetle! 😵

Well, I've almost had my PBB for a whole year! Best year of my life car-wise I reckon, even with the ups and downs.
Anyway, she has some more chrome bits (of course!) and here they are:
I'd take a whole car photo of her but she's a bit self conscious, what with her fat tummy and impending arrival due soon... :P

SINATRA!
ctefeh, the 'Automatic Stickshift' badge has been on my wanted list for aaaaages, and I found a NOS one a while back. I got the measurements for it instead of being impulsive and just buying it, and I'm glad I did because it won't fit on my Bug since she has the chrome decklid vent thingies! :P
PBB,
It interferes that much!? I'll keep that in mind when it comes time to paint Klaus.
Thanks
Ctefeh
PS Ever find a finger guard for the petrol flap?
No I didn't find one, and I want one of those more than anything!! 🥲
Those chomed fuel flap guards were on ebay {AUST} all the time a few months ago....
I don't know if they would fit Your fuel filler though,
as I have a 1971 fuel flap and it doesn't fit the 68 fuel flap
why VW changed the shape??? they look the same....
but don't fit... slightly different shape....
although the chrome bit may also fit Yours....
as they only go along the bottom and Up....
not all the way round.... maybe thats why....
I have got those shades over the top of the door glass but haven't fitted them yet....
I've never seen those ones near Your 1/4 windows...
It still looks great Laura....
cheers

I found a very shiny original chrome horn ring for my Bug, and it came with the horn button thing and both look brand new!
Will put them on this week and get some pics... it's beautiful! :P
