I thought I'd post a couple of pics of my beetle. I read about this beetle in VW POWER in about 1993 I think! It was for sale through a friend of a friend so I bought it, drove it for a couple of years, stuck it in my garage (whilst other things took prioirity) now I've go the time & inspiration(mainly from looking around this site) to pick up the sanners & get stuck in!
I've already received great advice from people on this site, thanks!
Cheers

1302 to be rustored & like everybody I'm waiting for the elusive split ute!
Ah yea I remember that one.
Has it still got the red with red on red interior?
Haha yeah, its held up remarkably well but it does need a change! Still has the custom antenna & rear number plate position too!

Hey! super are cool. Any thing done to the engine? got any pic's to share?
I am sick of ABS, SRS, AFM, SIDI, ECU, PIM, BCM, Electronic sensors & actuators, scan tools, fault codes, programing, flashing, syncing, Drive by wire, tract🤪ion & stability control, AARRHHH!!! Just give me Air cooled, VW's.. Simple.
Engine is just a stock 1600 with a dress kit. I was thinking I should upgrade brakes & suspension before I go for a bigger motor. It's drives great with the existing motor, not a lot of power but I was driving 70ks a day so I didn't really want anything too thirsty. I'm investigating the Subaru power plant which seems to be a good option price wise, but alot of stuffing around with radiators etc..
Suspension, brakes and a refreshed look first, then I'll start thinking about a motor.

Before you pull the car apart.

car forums. where a lot of peoples good intentions end up taking a good old car off the road forever never ever to see the road again. 🥲
