Hi all,
Newbie here......just about finished restoring a '71 bug.....final bits & pieces going in now.
Upgraded from 1300cc AB to 1600cc AS engine & gearbox.
Project took me exactly 12 months.
This was how Duke was 10 months ago......for full body-off restoration
Very nice Duke surprised you never joined earlier could have got lots of help. Malasia and Thailand all seem to have superb looking machines. Did you do all the work yrself?
Welcome. The beetle looks great, well done 👍
Wow, rear headdrests, Kamei style front bib... That looks sensational!
Welcome to the forum Duke
Pay your debts, CxxT

Nah, I project managed the restoration. I only restored the internals myself....window regulators, dash, chrome bits, etc. Thankfully my panel beater, painter & wireman were all decent chaps
But still it meant most Saturdays last 12 months were spent on Duke.....sometimes hunting down parts
