Which way should I go?


My latest project is 64 birch green squareback.It has neat but slightly worn salt and pepper interior.Now ive primed and patched all little damages and the car is nice and straight.I have all new rubbers scrappers and beading and gromets and stuff.I need some input on which way to go .Its either respray in original colour with white roof ,roof rack,slammed on stock rims with whitewalls,and a few little accessories or black cream roof alot of accessories,small squareback roof rack and slammed on BRMs or keep it original paint with primer showing and tones off accessories some pin stripping T1 bucket lights grafted in and slammed on sprintstars.What do you folk recon.

Don't do the black.

Unless you're going to do a fully original restore and keep it for posterity, VWs should be driven. If you paint it black, you find it absolutely impossible to keep clean for more than half a day and the temptation will be to not drive it.

I'd much rather see it in primer (and slammed) and driven, than turned into another meaningless "show" car.

P.S. White is actually the easiest to keep looking clean - believe me, we know these things in the outback!

Unity I reckon black and caramal two tone with a blue pearl over the black would look mad.Iplan to make mine a neat daily driver so if it chips I will easily respray the offending panel.I dont know theres something about a black VWs they look so mean with all the right accessories you cant go wrong but I just cant shake that 50s feel to the birch green very old school its just a mad colour white roof silver BRMs,155 at the front 185 and the rear, thin walled by good ol Don,and slammed.and then bring out the accessories.The theme is Tiki and if anyone has seen the the type4 woody wagon well Im doing a type 3 woody wagon,Im using wood look contact adhesive and plastic wood stripping stay tuned.Oh shit ive let the cat out the bag .

Which way


Anyone interested in an early notch for about 1k+delivery. Can deliver Tuesday b4 Easter from Tassie. Needs brakes, is a runner, with 1600cc engine, not roadworthy... but otherwise in good average condition. Good potential restorer, or slammer. Is the model with bugger all chrome trim, approx 64-65. volma1



They are still there, just have faith you'll find one.
