Poor things look quite confused to me. They've got late fenders but they just want to be returned to the sixties :dork:

hehehe i think ur rite mate,

does look abit out of place. on 60's bugs.

no plans for them yet, i would like to try giving one the rod look.

dont know yet.

the first one definatly seems confused. one late guard and one early.

are they solid? do u have most of the bits?

i say leave the whale tail on the second one but lose the wide guards and make a nice german looker........and bring the first one back to the orgional 60's look. then u can have the best of both worlds.....i dont mind the tail but the wide guards on that thing look mong :duh


the first car has a club vw sydney website on teh deck lid perhaps some of the members know of the car?


Soup_A_Star - September 4th, 2005 at 10:53 PM

i have the original gaurd for the first one in my garage, dont know why the last owner put it on for ????


both cars are solid, only the first one has some damadge on the front apron, its abit squashed in on the left hand side.

I like the 'two tone' paint! That'll be a unique rat-looker! but yeh, get rid of the fat guards... they look munty on the early bugs..

I used to have a 1960 beetle like that. shocking flares and late model head lights. Well I took it back to the sixties alright...I ripped off the body and made it a buggy!
