Can you tell me who makes the seats you have here? I am doing a restoration myself & really like the seats you used.

Thank you

Those are from a Honda S2000 and were re upholstered.

So, what's the latest progress?

Is THIS the beast the new wheels are for?
Be careful Vincent, France is getting spoiled! Razz

We found a '71 Beetle last week so now have a ball joint front axle/brakes, all wheels can have the same bolt pattern now.

And our motor should arrive by next weekend.
Getting excited but not even going to try to have it for MOTF.
Maybe MOTB???

Hi Paul, this Kick-Out-S.S. rolled 33,000 miles a few weeks ago and we drove it to Carlisle. It's getting a little attention before we put it through its paces for MotF and ECVW.

We've not decided yet what the wheels we be going on to yet... Hope to see you at MotF!

I know it’s been a few years but recently did a walk around video for someone wanting details on the KO. Thought I’d share.
