Did you do the seats? Where did you source the covers?

Thanks alot guys for the positive comments. The seats were reupholstered locally using a material that was spot on to the original color and texture.

Looks Awesome. But your axle boots are installed wrong. Seams should be in the 9 & 3 o'clock Position facing towards the rear. Smile

Keep the updates coming.

yeah i wasnt thinking when i put the axle boots on.... ill be sure to turn them a bit. No biggy.... I have started on the body and fenders now so ill be sure to post some more pics as i go.... thanks to everyone for the positive feedback!

Well I have been pretty slack on the progress of my oval. I have been restoring a 74 kombi to sell. But I have been collecting parts to put the oval together once I get the body painted. I will be sure to post some new pics in the future. Cheers Jonathan
