"Olive" - Our 1955 Oval Beetle
"Olive" is the new addition to our family that my Husband and I picked up this weekend. She's a January built 1955 Oval in original condition and
drives like a dream. We can't wait to take her to Valla in August with our crew! I'm looking at joining a club also, however we arn't too sure
which one. Possibly thinking either Bad Little Buggers or The VW Drivers Clubs of QLD. We're based in Brissy.

They certainly are Andrew! I'll try and get around to taking more pics. Olive is as close to original as you can get though, even the engine is the
original one, still 6V. I'll put more information up very soon

Thanks Ian that's good advice, the previous owner actually gave her a full service from top to toe in the month before we picked up Olive and did a
lot of other work on her so she's in great working order
