Cool Dean......post some photos of your Oct. 50'....sounds real nice....did yours have the seat covers that looked like a old style picnic table cloth?....Uzi's 50' and my 52' both had them...or what was left of them.....the Swedes had that shit going on 8)

Early Sunday morning drive, just in time for sunrise. Pretty sure life doesn't get much better.

Finally picked up another mirror clock for the split rag

I sold my first one about 10 years ago and always regretted it. Happy to have one again, easily my favorite accessory of all time

it's nice, but somewhat i always associate them with zwitter and up beetles.
not that the grapes are sour, i got a glovebox clock even though i have the original one in the becker monza radio so i know the feeling... :lol:

No worries, to each their own. My split is a very late production date car, just a few weeks before Zwitter production started, and it has a few other late details so I think it goes well with the overall theme.

I am saving my glove box clock for the 51 Karmann. :)
