Well i have decided to paint the (Home made) spit beetle satin black with red sides,i have painted the engine grey and the wheels grey,im on the look out for a beetle rack and and any other accessorys to suit it,any accessorys you have that might suit it let me know cheers shane.
Well i guess its not a rat,but i dont know what else to call it due to the fact its going to be flat colours not shiney, this body was going to be thrown out to the tip so i grabbed it and started playing with it,now i just whant to get it going???greedy the extra stuff im looking for is things like beetle roof rack,old NRMA badge or scratch plates for the door handles(Ice Pick Style) scratch plate for the bonnet handle,any old vw related stickers or badges ,15 inch white wall inserts,anything that suits the period i guess to make it look old cheers shane.
