It is good t osee that people will do a lot to keep their Beetles on the road, but those two are not my taste. Not a big fan of those whail tails. The red one..., I take my hat off for the sheetmetal work done :hangloose: But the lines dont "flow" right. The two bumps behind the seat can stay, but from there, it whould realy have been done like a Roadster/Hebmuler style. My €0-02.

As far as I go ... Ilike the eyelids on the black edition ... and on the red ... ummm ... nope ... cant find anything.
Now where was that bolt from again ...?
And do I need to weld that together?

I like them both but I think they could have used a better whale tail on the black one....
