Parts in SA
Hey guys I have recently purchased a 1962 vw beetle it has minimal rust and the body is in decent shape. It currently has a 1300 engine in it, i think
it has seen better days. Anyway i'm just looking for front and rear bumpers, indicator covers, original seats and the original exhaust system.
Thanks,
Pete

I have to make sure it will fit the car first because the people i bought it from changed the entire system.

bought one from ebay and it came with a few cracks in it.

So far i have pulled the interior out (it was carpet glues to chip board), pulled the seats out and got rid of the surface rust on the floor and
treated it, covered the door cards in black vinyl, re wired the car because someone stuffed around with the wires, got a new starter motor, hub caps,
sound system and removed the fog lights. She's a bit of a bitsa but the engine is pretty sweet and goes 110 on the freeway.

I saw this car ages ago, wondered what had happened to it and now I know what did happen.
Nice Vitaloni Baby Turbo windows, seems they wanted a Germanlook going on on an early model.
What year is it exactly?

Yeah man, that's the one!
I used to have torana taillights too, horrible stuff. The 80's bought some silly stuff to beetles, was awkward looking...
Don't get me started on the Carrera kits!
