Was your bug always yellow? I remember seeing a yellow bug with white window rubbers in JHB in 1999

The white rubbers were imported.
The rear vents were cut into the deck lid by the first owner, a big difference in running temp!!!

If you guys want different colour rubbers I can go past a place who used to make a few different colours and see if they still got some left or can make

Nice...
That engine vents look nice, reminds of the Renault Dauphine, as Pine mentioned.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
Do'nt assume anything- (While doing fault-finding).
