Does anyone know where i could get a set of lowback seats for a bug 😵💫
Seen a few bugs on the weekend there is 2 bugs at a house on the way to goulburn ones light green they must use it as a paddock basher it has a spotlight and they have a white one around the back whitch they must use for parts.
Then there is one on the lawn of a house in goulburn a blue one looks like a 66 and also if u head out crookwell way in a paddock on a little hill there is a white bug poor thing just sitting there rotting 🙁

Well about 8 months ago sum1 poured a bag of concrete on my 71 soft-top, so it went everywhere and inside too ( all over my new upholstery... ) My car wasnt targeted it was about 6 cars parked out the front of my mates house, apparently sum1 was havin a party n were too loud, so they called the cops, then these ppl thought Payback with concrete. Lucky i started to wash it just b4 it started to rain.
Also, about 5 months back, sum dick must have been throwing eggs out their car as they drove down the road at nite, my car was parked ( Same place as with concrete) and got hit right in the middle on the side, ruined the paint, i was soo pissed. Dont think i'll bother fixing the paint now tho, it will be too much work, ill hav to respray so much.
note to self, dnt park out the front of my mate's anymore
P.s Im also keen for sum low back seats for the bug im working on at the moment, Also a '71 superbug (not soft-top)

why do you want low backs? It was a saftey issue that they were discontinued them in the first place
to many people ending up with spinal injuries from the dumbass behind crashing into them
and plenty of that going on now with all the P platers that thing they can text while driving
71 was the only year of low backs with T runners, and most of them have been swapped for highbacks now

Yea i kno it was a safety issue brought in in 1971 for head/neck support (Due to accidents), but the high backs that they made in comparison to thel ook of the lowbacks are quite unappealing, they are too square at the top, either that or ill put gemini seats in it lyk are in my current beetle.

Well no, i know it was sum1 across the road that did it, the people that rang the cops were my mates next door neighbour (who is a cop ), and their cars didnt even get targeted, i was spewing when i woke up the next day and saw it. Lucky it didnt do any damage, it slightly discolour the soft-top material but not very noticeable.
But the EGGS, i had a lil tear in my eye when i saw the damage, and after all the work i put into it for sum low life, who probably hasn't or never will put any effort into anything to ruin it with a egg. So furious...😬
Yea, its a Subaru colour, you can see sum photos on the young dubber section

The 64 has a fair bit to go.
At the moment we are planning on building a shed up the back to work on it in. Mum and dad just bought it off my brother so that he could buy himself another newer car and still keep the beetle.
We still havent decided what path were gunna take it down, i reckon clasic look lowered onto its guts with a big beefy aircooler engine. But that alot of money which i dont have atm,
And im doing the 71 up again soon with a subi motor.

It was pretty good day up at robertson aye, more cars then i was expecting and also not the types of cars i was expecting, lyk the mustangs and other muscle cars...
Wasnt the Sydney VW club supposed to be there?? i saw one nice early blue beetle which i think was from the club, but apart from that there was only 4 other beetles and 3 kombies i think. I was hoping to see a few more to give me sum ideas on how im gonna do my 71 up, both paint and upholstery. Alwell, ill probably go to Blast from the Past next month, apparrently they had sumthing lyk 80 vw's last year, should be good

look at the photos of my upholstery in the Young dubbers - show us you rides section
They arnt White, they are a kinda tan/ cream colour, I originally wanted white but the upholsterer talked me out of it, saying they are too hard to keep clean and most ppl get a colour similar to the one that i chose, im glad now cause i think white would hav been too BRIGHT and give too much GLARE especially in a convertible anyways. Plus i looked at the material samples next too each other, it does appear heaps darker when you got it against the white, but on its own it doesnt. I have enough troubles keeping mine clean, well it doesnt help wen i deliver pizzas in my car lol
