The variant was very nicely finished and the owner was saying, all his own work, other than the final alignment of the steering.
Paint on the roof was pretty outstanding for a garage job.

A friend of mine is a gymnastics coach. Has had a few US gymnasts through his place. Anyway, he invited me to attend a fund raiser for the special Olympics today. A wealthy local businessman opened the door on his secret stash of all beetles for necky buggers like me to look around - for a slight gr...

This is a bit of a stretch but… I was telling the family about the Billy Connolly sketch about the prescription windscreen and his grandma knitting him a balaclava with too small an eye hole. I can’t find the whole thing. Best is this: https://www.tiktok.com/@estaizzy/video/7146644091739065606 Can a...

What is it about VWs and a collector habit? A friend has just found this little lot and asked me if I want a look. I have enough projects on my plate, but nothing compared to this guy! 1383F8D7-AA86-475E-B5B6-1C68EE190940.jpeg 787CDA83-42B2-4B4D-83ED-77A58CFE2B62.jpeg D52C498D-66E0-4957-9990-3CCBF6F...
