Aircooled VW South Africa

It's going to look the bomb!

SHWEEEEEEET!
Are you going to add a set of white wall tires to her Gavin?

Thanks for the compliments!

I was thinging I might. I've always liked the look of black (or the colour the car is) and cream rims. The style does lend itself to looking superb with white-walls though

I'm *hoping* I'll have a roof rack soon too

aiming for the same look once I'm done!
just in the VW turqoise color!

I think cream wheels and cream leather will look awesome

Update time!

Sidebar: yes, yes I've been away for quite some time now. The truth is that I'd left my old job (at FHM) about three months ago and am now working for a friend of mine in a completely different line of work altogether. Things are going extremely well but in so being, I haven't time to log on all that often these days There is good news though; both my ACVWs are still very much part of my life and are being loved and worked on all the time The bus is better than ever! - Lots happened there like dog-house cooling conversion, new (SUPERB) engine bay wiring (Thanks Bill), new alternator, new dizzy and professionally rebuilt 34 PICT-3 Carb'. That van runs like a Swiss watch and is used ALL THE TIME!

I haven't gotten Daisy back as yet but I'm really hoping it'll be soon. Joggie has been sending me pictures of all the updated work he's been doing and I must admit it's looking quite amazing! Apparently he's battling a bit to re-install the windows with the new rubbers and OG chrome beadings. Afaik, that is the last "big thing" to have to be done and then I should have it back. I have every confidence so all being well, soon there'll be pics of the final product

Until then, here are a few teasers

Welcome back Gavin!
Daisy is looking super cool!
The parcel shelf is giving me ideas!
Can’t wait to see what she’s going to look like all polished and pretty!

Thanks a million Retrobug! That parcel shelf is very handy. You probably know that they came in bamboo too. Personally I like the metal one for '60's bugs. Have a hunt - you're sure to find either I'm sure

Dont think its Daisy anymore looks more like Angelina Jolie now very very hot
