1960 Beetle 'Jupy' photos
Ok so i have finnaly gotten around to putting some photo's on here of my 1960 beetle, very first beetle ever, its my daily driver and it has been
bashed a little and fixed again to get her back on the road now is getting nice an revamped so i just thought i would post these for ppl to see.
When i first brought him 4 years ago-- sheez i was only 15.
this one was for the boyfriend at the time.
Came with Hazett tool box in awesome nic (only missing 2 tools) however It went when the boyfriend did...GRRR
Nice neat fuel cap and original key 
What happens when idiots driving bombed up fords speed through round abouts with no breaks etc... Was one of the scariest things ever... and only 9
days after i got my licence.
Put some new guards on, fixed steering, breaks, front end etc and stuck him back on the road.. good as new :S
Just two pics of my new dog cassie after her first day at home and her first drive in my beetle.
Finally fixing the rust in him... my very first time welding ever YAY
A 5c fitted just perfect under the wheel arch
Where he is at the moment. Soon to be painted metalic blue, then its off to get re carpeted and new interior.
And thats her 4 yr history at the moment. Hope you liked
El

Nice job fixing it yourself 
Really nice looking beetle.
What sort of headlights are they, is that fog lamps built into them?
