As per the topic of this post, I will explain some of the back story. Back in the good old days where the Australian dollar was almost equal to the US dollar. I found a site called bfyobsoleteparts.com seemed like a good site and a few searches found it not to be dodgy. As its a US company i was happy to pay for shipping to AU. This was back in late June. Late August i hadn’t received my parts yet, followed them up after they told me it had been sent 3 times, finally it actually was sent. I get it only to find that half of the items weren’t there. Waited another month still nothing literally this week (Early Nov) the item turned up. I am happy that the item has come and it was packed very well, but I’m not sure if i will order from them again or tell people to use them. I am lucky i didn’t need it urgently. Will post some more pics asap.
Cool pictures.
I have been busy(or lazy) as of late, taking a few pictures as i do things like installing the rubber seals on the bonnet and decklid (not fun), and cleaning up inside the beetle (the second beetle the original is on hold untill ig et some money together). These pics are after i have given it a nice clean…


Quick look inside (even has the factory plastic on the door.) I really want to get the late seats in there i dont like these mini versions 😛 But it may be time to put some pics of beetles i have collected up on my trips around the internet (I did not make these, I either got emailed them or found them in my trips, no copyright infringement meant.).
Ying and Yang beetle was made by Square Sailor check out his other great work at deviantart here
Also have another video of the new beetle wobbeling without the muffler 😛 Gotta change spark plugs soon, just waiting for a good quality spark plug socket to rock up.
