My project : Mexico Racer

Hello all !
First, sorry for my english language, i'm a froggy !!!
So, my car is a 1984 mexico beetle. I bought it last year in july and the first thing to do were the rear brakes. I rebuilt the whole circuit brakes with new parts from Germany only ! Then I bought 4 16" rims Porsche Boxster with 175/50/16 front and 195/55/16 rear. I bought new dropped spindles, new front disc brake kit in 5X130 and finally bought new rear 5X130 drums ... To date, only the rear wheels are installed on the car... This weekend, I'll install the front brake kit and the front wheels ! Enough talk, here are the pictures :

First, when I bought the car :



Then with the rear wheels installed :



Another pic from the rear wheels :



After installation of the front brakes kit, I will lower the rear axle, install the rear fenders and taillights from 13/15/1302 (I hate the actual big taillights) and probably paint all the chrom parts in black except the bumpers to be replaced by the same in carbon if $'ok or paint fiber if $'not ok ...
To be continued
