I have to agree with you Chris. Normally I'm not too fond of Teledials, but they look great on that bug.Chris wrote:Wow,those wheels fit well.
Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see it after the paint.

Re: MY 65 TYPE 4 POWERED SUNROOF BUG
I like white too. VW used to do Arctic-white. It had the slightest hint of blue, made it look ice-cold.
