Hi all,

I really need your help, the complication is starting to slow my restoration. Is the fabric below the rear passengers windows in the same as the headlinering or the same fabric as the seats (streifenbraun)? Its the section that attactches to the B pillar.

I've been told by two didfferent sources and I'm unsure which is right.

Thank you

HI,
only the B pillar ist streifenbraun! That in the pic is wrong. The seats look little "unhappy"

Thank you BeetleKey.

Does any one have a photo of an original untouched split beetle interior?

Thanks

Here's an interior shot of my 1951. Everything is original. Not the best photo but it shows the areas you are asking about. Seat material on the B pillar and headliner material below the rear quarter window.
