You guys make a beautiful job on this vw38. That's so amazing to see a car beat out like it was before beeing ''resurected'' like you did. Last fall, I just bought my first bug. I always wanted a great looking beetle and by following this thread, I finally make my mind and buy one. Here in east Canada, we just freak out when we see an Oval window. Only the internet can help us to see what kind of fantastic work are done all over the world on those rare bug.
Thanks you so much to let us live this restauration and a big ''bravo'' for the HO team. _________________ Stephane Blanchet-Cote

Axel, don't blame the people - everybody will know that you just had a Sunstar-Toy-beetle in your kitchen. Same as the blue Barndoor where you shot the bottom  |
