Bought this little bug from mick motors and it was white full or rust and just sad looking. 2 years of restoring him and he's almost finished 馃檪 His name is Kermit 馃檪

Looks excellent

a good year for torsion bar beetles too..

just need a front disc brake upgrade ..

although No beetles were ever sold in the USA with disc brakes.. even in 1976 etc..

only Karmann made cars had discs..

cheers

We have the disks on the front and drums on the rear. Trying to keep it pretty original and down cost but that's not gunna happen haha

I love the color! Are you going to have it ready for Action Day in September?

Bizarre 路

Looks great!

Is that the same colour as on the new Siroccos?

katNkermit 路

It will be finished hopefully by June/July 馃檪

The colour I think is called ithica Verdi, which is the colour of lambos 馃檪

Excellent! I look forward to seeing Kermit parked up with the rest of us then 馃檪

It's MUCH lighter than Scirocco green. Can't wait to see the finished product!

When and where is this auction day?? Yeah it's really light. But in the sun it changes to green and gold 馃檪
I look forward to going 馃檪

No no not auction... ACTION Day. No one's car is going under the hammer :p

It's at Wynnum, and it's in September. Keep an eye on the coming events section for more info when the VWDCQ post a thread about it! It's basically a great big show and shine and swap meet!
