Cars looking sweet Paul and look forward to seeing the final result (completed). My car not far off finished now, but that's another story :-)

Talk soon, Kev.
I thought rebuilding a VW would be cheap - Shit I was wrong, just don't let the wife know !!!!

Amazingly nice, really wish I could drop Zelda in at Rod's one day, would come out beautiful.

glad you liked the car I got to see her for the first time finished tonight at RAW, Adam is doing the final touches including fitting the windows and new rear popouts.

Yes it took a while to settle on the colour and most of those who knew beforehand were apprehensive of the colour selection (they tell me after seeing the car finished) lol but after seeing it i have had nothing but positive comments

Paul!

Hurry up and post some pictures up, I want to see her in her full beauty with these rear popout windows!
I'm really thinking about doing it to Zelda, but I'm not 100% if I am going to or if I'm going to go complete German look with her...

I've liked the colour from the word go and from what I have seen in photos, it definitely looks neat and tidy!

Thanks yes will post photos when I get her back. Ordered new interior light, clips for the sunvisor and boot cover for the handbreak lever.

Waiting on Rod to finish the rear speaker shelf and head rests.

Hi Paul,

Rosie is coming along very nicely. I've never liked Dubs with upright headlights, but yours has changed my mind completely. 😉 You've been doing a great job with her and should be very proud. 😵
Of course the guys from Raw always do great work, it's a pity I live soooo far away or I too would have to get some of their magic done to my '67.😢

One question if i may? Are the front speaker panels the ones from restosound, or the normal ones most people stock?

I look forward to more updates.

I don't care what anyone else says, this has to be the cleanest interiors of a beetle I have ever seen!
It is absolutely stunning Paul, I hope you're chuffed and can't wait to drive it! 😀
