My 1st & current VW
hey guys, thought id post some pics of my 1st and current bug. bought it 4 yrs ago for $600 with alot of cancer. everything on this little guy has
been done by me and coming from a holden background, BOY!!! this was an eye opener!! its gone through a few stages and is currently undergoing the
conversion to a drag/tidy street car. The look will now more or less stay the same but with a fresh bare metal respray and giving it an even cleaner,
race-inspired look. then after that, the focus is going to be set at more power again. Iv had many VW (13 in fact) since buying this one 4 yrs ago,
but its the only one which has hung around alot of the changes on
this little guy have occurred under it, but there are just to many pics to post up, so i just posted these as a rough summary of its life with me.
hope u guys like it, cheers Adam

Mate,that is awsome! One of the best beetles ive seen for a while.
I'm not usually a fan of the 'Herbie thing', yet it actually suited that car as it was slammed.
And only my personal opinion,it looks sweet with the stock rims.
Dont wanna swap for a 64 square do ya?
Ha, I thought you wouldnt
Very nice,congrats on ya hard work

Hey Al, yeah still running em, they're brilliant.... originally i was going to cut down the grease cap and reweld it but when i tried i noticed that
there is not enough room if you're running the billet locking axle nuts... so i came up with another theory which worked, i had a mate make me up a
set of alloy spacer plates, since the disc kit narrows the track 6mm, when i spaced it 6mm to be able to fit the caps it basically returned the track
to standard, again not an issue anyway as i have a 2 inch narrow beam.... if you need some plates, let me know and i can organize them for you.
cheers adam
