Beautiful Bug. I would leave her as is and enjoy the ride. Maybe play with changing little things like wheels but would keep the colour the same.
Enjoy thanks for sharing. droooool. :mrgreen:

Airhead...

you can probably expect your Milly to look like this from a colour and white walls perspective. This 69 is one of our club cars. Lastly, whatever you do is your choice... use it, dont....

Hi Muds.

You won't believe it that's the exact same bug that got me khinking of the two tone paintjob.
I saw it in the latest "Max my ride" magazine.

Thanks for the pic.

Klaus, that's a brilliant idea. I think the blue bug looks fantastic just as it is! If you must experiment go with the vinyl. Is the paint still original? You may kick yourself in ten or twenty years if you paint over perfectly good original paint. On the other hand. You have to live with your bug so it should look the way you like it to look.
