Re: 2 tone S Bug rebuild
Looks super clean bar the odd bit of rust. Would make an awesome daily driver 

Camping is cheaper than therapy.

You welcome to make a turn
White?

You will notice that we did not do the 2 tone the normal way but a bit different and these colors go very well together
Wait tilll you see the pics of the seats I am just keeping them back a bit as a teaser till later

Re: 2 tone S Bug rebuild
That is looking really good man , I like the 2 tone sprayjob . I thought it would look a bit odd due to the age of the beetle but it looks incredible , now I've got some inspiration to do mine !
Keep on rolling baby , you know what time it is !

Re: 2 tone S Bug rebuild
Bugger is turning into the one-stop do-all shop!!
I've been eyeing this bug since they started. The paint job came out really good for the money the owner is paying. Also the resident upholsterer seems to know his job! He will be doing my SC roof lining as soon as the Bugger'd 'box is back.
Missing link: Performance engine shop!

Re: 2 tone S Bug rebuild
I've seen this bug in the making. It's a really superb job that's being done!
. The colour scheme is brilliant! Your upholsterers are also doing a top-notch job! This is one to be proud of
