Hot VW's did an feature on it that tells it all ......April 2001. Let's just say it's a "Very" early Canadian car and I'm lucky to be it's caretaker. VW of Canada is not happy it's in the States. _________________ "What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away." Dobee, Dobee, Do |

That interior should be in my car, minus the piping and vinyl on the top of the door panel.
Standards look like this. I don't want a new interior until I decide what I'm doing with the car. I have since put new vinyl covers and new fabric store panels. The old interior was pretty gross. I am not responsible for the duct tape.

That looks real similar to the cloth og seats in my 57.
How close of a match is it? _________________ '57 Beetle |

It should be an exact match. My car still had the original cloth on the rear seats and it looks exactly the same. Lenny gets the cloth from Germany. _________________ Craig

Originals are IMPOSSIBLE.....
Here's a nice reproduction. (originals for ovals are beige/grey and OG for splits are beige/brown)
