Hello
Last Monday I bought my first dub, a white 2 seater custom convertible beetle for $2000. I think it's 1967 or earlier, not sure, but it is licenced,
running, and oh ... so ... noisy
It needs a bit of work, am getting the canvas top repaired and windows made for it, it has a leaking exhaust, and will need a respray sooner or later,
but for now it is oh ... so ... noisy
pics to come, my digicam is charging

Here are some nice pics of the ride,
Both floorpans need replacing, something which I'll hopefully do myself along with my brother, who's a welder by trade.
Really needs some panelwork and a full respray, lots of minor stuff, but that will be down the track. For now I'll just try to get her running a
little more smoothly, has been running too rich and is suspect has a leaking exhaust, and to fix up the floorpans. Oh, and get the radio properly
installed.
