All good Kev, chuck a bit of work in every now and then!

They did an okay job on the Beetle, nice idea putting early guards on a later model, turned out okay although I wasn't
fussed on the stickers?!

They said at the start of the show they were gong to lower it. They must have realised it's not as easy as just replacing a coil spring or two :lol::lol::lol:

They didn't show some of the welding / rust repairs as I thought they would, but you can only fit so much into one show.

I'm sure the owner is as happy as a hooker the night the navy arrive in town :D

Kev you weren't paying attention she had a beam up front, if the pommy Beetles are the same as ours she must have been a 68 to 70 model with those tail lights. There's a question are pommy Beetles the same as Aussie ones re-tail lights and beam to strut front ends?

Can I use this I like it!
