Looking for a good rear apron for my 1970 beetle. Mine got creased in a hit. Love the idea of making it removable.

Cheers

Thats a 76 rear apron fitted to the white car. There available new from Vintage Vee Dub 02-9789-1777 the 76 dosent have a inner panel and there easy to make removable

Thanks vw54.

They only have the single exhaust rear apron at present. New price is $195 including GST.

So will keep trying for a 2nd hand unit until the new twin exhaust one is in stock.


vw54 - June 19th, 2007 at 12:10 PM

You could cut the 2nd hole quite easy with a set of tin snips

Ring Lee at Volkshaven 02 46265255 he has a green 68 on bug he is wrecking ,he should be able to cut it out for you:tu:

you can get fibreglass ones from john shearman and there well under the $100 mark from memory
ive got one on my black bug
they come with no cut outs at all u just cut them to suit whatever exhaust u have

only down side is they are only in the fuel injection style (bulged type)
