Thanks Eben That link sure helps with the Ideas was Comparing a beetle new chrome surround with the Variants very buckled ones today and it looks good in comparison so I am sure That I can make the beetle one work

Well Quick up date

Oj before I forget LOL to Baron :hangloose:

Collected the Squary at the previous owner today and a few Type4 1800 Spares (I did phone Blitz about them )

Loaded it on the Car trailer and Off I went to Jan in Centurion to deliver my Package

I picked up My one mate who`s bug is at Jan aswell to show him how his bug is tuned out after the magic brush and is looking AWESOME not fully finished yet but nearly there
So while on the trailer I loosend the bottom gearbox to motor bolts and Home made x member which is made ---- ,took it off the trailer and ripped out the 2L Type 4 motor so the engin bay can also get the paint magic

Removed the seats and brought the motor home
Stripped off the silenser heater boxes and carbs and left it alone for now So I can decide what am I going to do with the motor and concentrated on the Motor that is going in to the Frous New beetle to finish it to get fitted by the weekend

Except for the beading nothing goes there
check front and rear fender alignment a real pita to get right.
