Pics Of My Car At Final Battle 2002
Oppressa - February 5th, 2003 at 09:14 PM

Just thought I'd share these pics from Novermber 2002. The AutoSalon series is Australia's largest after market modified car show and I had the only old type Beetle there (ever). There was only 1 NB.

I couldn't win any awards because the show is for post 86 models. I only got in because of my affiliation with Car Audio Australia. But I'm happy to say there were a lot of enthusiastic Beetle fans (and some late model car-lovers who were impressed also) who came up to talk to me and I kept the presence of Beetles alive and well!

I think I saw one of those front fender accessories in one of those rare WCM catalogues - it was a RHD optional accessory only as far as I know.:kiss

I think in that last photo the camera was behind the wrong person!

Nice achievement Opressa! :thumb

Wes, I'm sure you've got one of them laying around somewhere... Actually, on the Fraser trip I'm sure you brought it with you, but you didn't have it mounted, as I recall, it was just lolling around on the passenger seat...

Saw your car at the show but couldn't find you. It had create plenty of interest though :)

hey nice car, i think that fender accesory also fits into the "ankle straps" on the B-pillars too as well as the backseat.

not a fan of neons though

Hey You Guy's i have one of those fender ornaments i got mine in 84 it's a bit knocked around now and it's starting to sag a bit i would be prepared to part with it for the right price(i've saved $500) or swap it for a new model
let me know :(


Baja Wes - February 8th, 2003 at 06:37 PM

you could get your old ornament refurbished, but it's kinda expensive and never looks as good as it used to.

I think your best off to just get a new one.
