Really looking GREAT!!!
Obviously I'm not a " stock natzee " ..( type 6 ? ) but I was curious.......
Why did you paint the steering column and E brake and seat pieces white ? Is it a " delux " thing ...or...were you just looking for something different ? _________________ 63 two fold rag

Can you post info on your interior? What it is and where you got it please?
What an awesome job you've done with your ride. |

Thanks for the compliments. Still working out the glitches. Racer60- the seat covers are mesh grey from a 1965 beetle. They fit my 67 seat frames. The seat covers, coconut fiber seat pads, carpet, and rubber mats came from Wolfsburg West. The door panels were special made for a 67.They are from TMI. The headliner is a one piece "easy" headliner from Aircooled.net
I painted the seat frames, steering column, e-brake and shifter. I think the color is stone white. Bought it from Autozone. Also the seatbelts are from WW. Oh and the sill plates are from Fast Fab, |

I got to drive it to my first cruise in with my Uncle in his baja. Also ordered a roof rack from Pedrs's Racks. |

Here are some of the labels from this build. Wolfsburg West supplied most of the parts. |

Had to pull the rear window back out. The rubber was ripped on a lower corner, and the headliner needed re-adjusted badly. All back together now and looks alot better. |
