This panel was owned by some other members, picked it up in May minus an engine and have tinkered and learn't a lot during the winter about air cooled engines, along with being patient :-) anyway almost engineered approved, just need additional blinkers outside of headlights. Might put originals back on. Had fun driving for first time this week to get a weighbridge certificate and brake test. The engineer couldn't believe how good it pulled up. Next will be some panel repairs after Christmas.

The 75 beetle pictured provided the engine, and now is sitting in someone's yard in Dapto :-)

That's great
I loved going to the weigh bridge as part of licensing something about it that makes the process a little different.

Good for you and keep sharing

Now engineered and on the road. Few runs around northern beaches of wollongong this weekend and trips down to local surfing spot. Now some paint perhaps or just wack on a VW badge?
