love it and very different from most restored I've seen


geets - November 19th, 2010 at 05:30 PM

Always looking for a different look.
V happy with this look for now:cool:


Paulc1964au - November 19th, 2010 at 05:31 PM

Any shots of the interior?


geets - November 19th, 2010 at 05:34 PM

I'll set up a few shots and post them later..
Interior paint is all white.
Red seats. Sport seats in for practicality driving every day.
The original seats I have for it but find them too bouncy/dangerous

Very nice.


AzzA_teu - November 19th, 2010 at 06:20 PM

Mate that looks terrific, so clean. You've done a great job. It looks like it'd drive nicely.
Good luck with any future work you do. But I don't think you should be in any hurry.
Cheers


cam070 - November 19th, 2010 at 07:51 PM

Jeez that looks good. Hope to see it cruising the streets sometime


AUSSIE_MICK - November 19th, 2010 at 08:21 PM

Cool Ride

Great looking Beetle. I really like the look of the caps with the stock wheels.

Now I'm inspired to get back into fixing up my 60 Beetle.

Looks excellent mate, I like what you have done with the rear vents.


squizy - December 9th, 2010 at 08:38 PM

Seen you driving around up my area a few times. I was waiting for this car to hit the forums. I've currently got the green 67 HR so I'll give you a wave next time. There's a few of us up this way.


vwvic - December 9th, 2010 at 11:11 PM

Nice .Love the W lid.


geets - December 18th, 2010 at 12:22 PM

Thanks for the nice comments

Narrow beam is planned for one day in the future, Main prob being I cant get the 3 or 4 inch I really want, I just dot think 2 inch is worth the expense or hassle.
Does anyone you know where I can get one from in Sydney area???

Yes and I have noticed your green HR. Very cool ! Keen to see the others up here too


Paulc1964au - December 18th, 2010 at 12:43 PM

The boys from RAW can do it pm me for details


Bizarre - December 18th, 2010 at 12:49 PM

LOVE the wheels :tu:


Iris-the-lovebug - December 28th, 2010 at 07:24 PM

Wow...... AMAZING BUG!!!!!!!! I love it!!!!! :starhit:

I'm up thornleigh way. Maybe I will see you cruising soon. Unfortunately my bug won't be cruising for a while yet.

And pardon my ignorance but what's a hr?


Craig S - December 28th, 2010 at 08:41 PM

A HR Holden

(but this won't be the one they're talking about)


Wannavee - December 28th, 2010 at 09:40 PM

Tragic wheels on the HR. Unless its got a stove hot 350 in it!
Just my opinion,apologies if anyone's offended
