Hey, man! Look now, you're on page 2 already!!

See, the folks on the forum just want pics to look at.

[65bug]

Here is the original engine 2277*** and gearbox A160***. Will ad some more pics later

Kyk nou, split box and engine. Pic will do the trick ask blits

[65bug]

I will be needing new apron as seen in pic mine was cut for some reason they needed some space there. This will be the only replacement panel needed as all the other panels are solid and rustfree.

[Ron&Gill]

Don't you hate it when they do that?

[65bug]

Well if only I can get the correct panel.

[Ron&Gill]

From what I have seen there are at least 2, maybe 3 or 4 really outstanding metal wizards on this forum, whose skill will make your jaw drop, and would probably be able to fix that so you would never know it had been cut.

[65bug]

i dont think these need replacing

[karmakoma]

Can you not make the pictures a little smaller, its so irritating when they cover the entire screen!
Jokes.

Nice find, pity about the rear apron. Early big window beetles are becoming more and more popular,and to find one with so little/no rust?!
she's a keeper for sure

[Farhaad]

theres a guy i hear thats doing some awesome work on a particular notch. that apron should be a piece of cake

[65bug]

Can anyone pls tell me what is the name of this colour.

Thanks

If this is an SA Beetle, could be Kalahari Beige??

Else, check the details on the VIN plates and post it here ....
