Nice 1302S SuperBug
I really like the interior...and the early type 3 gearlever knob...
I don't know how You come up with different interiors
I can never think of anything
You can get a type 3 handbrake handle that fits over the plain old beetle hand brake...
Good Job [and a big one too] [IMHO]
Well done...
cheers

the car was worked on when time permitted.Unsure of total hours. Lots I suspect. I bought the car last Oct. Done all the work myself except the
upholstery. I have the guys name if anyone interested. Very competetive price. (aka Chadmyster)

Dad has spent lots of time on Boris and I think it looks great. We can all thank Jace (manx-xtc) for the violet crummble look. It was his idea. Joel,
I think Dad found a badge after he hadn't heard from you.I hope it hasn't caused you any trouble. The seat clips were great. Thanks again to all.

the car now has a matching timber and chrome gear stick knob and chrome pedal covers. Dad has a set of CSA mags to go on which he bought from Jace
and repainted. He is waiting until we get a blue slip before fitting them. |
