I'm bumping this one again. I have seen promos for the Chocolate Beetle in the UK and wish we had them here in the U.S. It is a beautiful color and interior to match. I'd love to see this Chocolate Super Beetle finished.

Here’s a link from a uk website relating to this build. He hasn’t posted on it for a while either, hopefully he’s ok and one day we’ll get updated.

Hi guys, many thanks for checking on me. I'm better now and will be cracking on with the project. Life was getting in the way but that's life.
I need to figure out again how to upload photos on this forum.
The car had more progress than the last updates either here or on the UK thread.
