Yes, another beetle destined for the streets of Adelaide. A 58 beetle that was purchased less most bits so slowly accumulating everything as well as putting the body work right. 2k black to be applied in a couple of weeks.
36hp motor
40hp gearbox
3" narrowed beam dropped spindles and dropped spring plates.
More pics to come as i progress.

Thanks, between this car and the zwitter project i've been flat out.
The 58 is getting a 1600 sinlge port with 40hp box in the next week or so, also i have a new wiring loom to run through it and also a new Mohair roof lining. Im on leave in Sept so want it done before then.

Definately a good look- so is it going to be for sale??
retroresto 路
Everything is for sale at the right price. I have had 4 offers already but im hoping to get it finished in the next month or so and enjoy it over summer, possiblly for sale after xmas as i have a zwitter project waiting for my attention.
