my 64 beetle
mattie - February 17th, 2009 at 01:42 PM

hi all thought it was about time i threw up some pics of my 64 beetle>

i bought it off resto 64 in november 08.

it has a 2 inch narrowed beam.
the car came with polished empi 5`s but i gave them to my dad n its now on black brms with red wall tyres.
it is still running the original motor and 6 volt electrics.
interior is amazing original roof liner,carpets and rubber mats.
mostly original paint both rear gaurds have been resprayed.

i lowered it a bit to much which gained me a defectible vehicle sticker but its nearly the end of summer so im not that bothered..
here`s a few piccies.

One very nice looking 1964 Beetle...

original hoodling etc... very nice...

probably only reason You got a defect is because you have P Plates...??

thanks looking into dropped spindles and asjustible spring plates for a bit better ride quality after i loose the sticker.

lee i thimk it was because of the p plates but what can ya do? i got away with it like this for 2 months think the coppers were just bored!

Hey Mattie, the bonnet is going to be great. fits a treat with good gaps. I am working from the rear forward on my car so it will be one of the last things I get to. Thanks again.
