Your startin to make me feel bad about not doin more to Pige.
Jodie's Beetle is comming along slowly, finished the paint on the body, just have to do inside the boot and the engine compartment. and you think
yours is slow, it's 18 months for me and there is still no end in sight!

ikube thanks so much.... Hey it was nice to meet you...your bug is very hot..how many do you have?
As for the cost of restoring Bel...I don't know if I'm gunna be game enough to add it all up...but a big lot of $'s...and still going.... It's so
hard to cut corners once it's started.... you don't want to have to go back in a couple of years do something else...she'll be smick....and I can
just enjoy her....
She'll be my cruisy weekend girl...... don't want to push her like my Type 3 Dr L....he's tough and can take it....
I dropped in on Nathan Sunday on my way home and got the switch for the reversing light...and the chrome strips for interior panels......
My restorer is asking me to stop buying now!!
Hey but some things you just need to have.....

Thats unreal....I want to know if vw's owners obsessiveness is a thing that grows the longer you have had your vw......I've only had mine for a
couple of months, and though I love it, I doubt I'd ever have the time, money or inclination to undertake what you have. Though perhaps, when I've
had it for a while, who knows ???
She's gorgeous Jenz, unbelieveable. |

Fantastic Jen - A brilliant example of what can be done. But... How does it sound.
Can't wait to see it in the shows. They will have to start buying bigger trophies with a standard like this.
Well done.

To tell u d truth Bronze I haven't heard her engine turn over since early Feb... :o
She was sounding sweet back then....
They are talking of driving her to the trimmers rather than trailer her....he's not too far away....
Must admit I got butterflies at the thought of her going on the road....my baby!!
