MY NEW LOOK 59!!!
It's been finished for a little while now but I hadn't got around to taking any pics until today.
She's a fair bit lower than before and now runs a set of original Lemmerz/EMPI Sprintstars which I had powder coated and then added the black details
(that took a full two days of masking!!).
The front end is now narrowed 2" with 135 Michelins on the front and 165s on the back.
It is still running 6 volts and 36hp. Next will be some period tuning.....

Mate that looks bloody great - the wheel combo is perfect!
Sorry if you've gone through it elsewhere, but can you give us some details on the other bug ('63?)?

Beautiful ride man  that looks sensational!!!
Have you got the venetians upside down and the inside facing out or is it just the pic, as it doesn't look right?
Cheers

I've been asked about that venetian before. Trust me it's up the right way. It's an original old one that was given to me.
It's got different shaped slats to all the others I've seen..

Amazing reconstruction of looks.
Nice styling!!
Pity it never caught the judges eye at the Bug in mate
Thought it was a shoe in myself, but praise from people that
know and appreciate quaility VW's is worth more i believe
