Tyres fitted

Made a plan to repaint the old wheel bolts in black.
Drilled a couple of holes in a piece of wood fitted the bolts and painted them in black

The yellow Fun Bug is mine. I bought it recently and I am planning a complete restoration to original. Wish me luck! My very first car in 1974 was a Fun Bug too, like the picture above ( the gold coloured one) hence the reason I want one again. Good luck with yours!

Dolos thanks appreciate it. Damn bottom engine bolt is stripped so now I have to pull the motor and get an insert put in. Then she can go back in and hopefully I can get this one on the road.
