58 Beetle in SA
Hi All,
Yes, another beetle destined for the streets of Adelaide. A 58 beetle that was purchased less most bits so slowly accumulating everything as well as
putting the body work right. 2k black to be applied in a couple of weeks.
36hp motor
40hp gearbox
3" narrowed beam dropped spindles and dropped spring plates.
More pics to come as i progress.
Cheers
Paul

Nice one mate, Did Jonny Call you?

C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.
