Aircooled VW South Africa

Very nice buggy Chris. I like it a lot

HR, you are one heck of a guy, I salute you.

Chris,

Thought you might have asked me to go hunting.

Wasn't thinking about that Tom.

Did some work on the Buggy today.Removed the T-top and the after market flicker arm.
Then I took the flicker arm off a beetle icluding the ignition switch as the after market switch is rubbish.
Sorted the wiring and I took the clomn box out the Beetle too,but it needs a slight modification to make it fit.

After

Theft is rife in PE someone stole your steering wheel....

Sorry...I prefer the t bar....

with out me !!!!

sorry Dutch i dissagree.Chris looks good like it with the T-top off

Chris I am still not sure about the type of Buggy you have - it seems either Beamish or Salamander, although the rear looks more Beamish?

Anyway, it looks cool with or without the T-bar!

Chris this buggy looks very similar to the one of Airpower, think it's a "Lolette" or something like that.
Very nice though like it without the T.

It is definitely not a Beamish. They only have one mould. That's why all Beamish buggies are equally skew... If you parked them all next to each other, they would look like a long row of bananas spooning.

Update

After the changes I made

T-top off and roll bar fitted


Bullbar trimmed on the edges so that it's inline with the wheels (thanks Bob)


Adjustable coil overs fitted (Thanks VDub Bulli)



Seats recovered (Thanks Zeelie)


Steering fitted with new secondhand Beetle steering colomn

Looks very nice chris

I agree....very nice!

Ek is so jaloers ek kan slange vang!!

Very nice Chris, it looks really good. The seats 100%! The T bar had to go......
