Your car is such an inspiration for me! I also love the way it's turning out! very neatly done and looks to be well thought out (color choices even!).

BTW, it's neat to see some people from NZ here. I personaly have never been there but I have a friend who's heading to NZ at the end of this month for 4 weeks, She's going with part of a school (shes going as a post grad). They are going to be doing some studdying but since my friend (Kristina) has already graduated she will be doing a lot of Kayaking (white water) as thats one of her hobbies. I think she would love your car, shes very much into motorsports (not specificly the Kafer flavor... but german non the less). I know she would totaly appriciate what you have done.(I gotta show her some of your pics!)

Later,
Jonathan

Thanks for that, she will love it here for sure. Ive done a little white water rafting my self,[not kayaking] but with a team in an inflatable.. lot of fun.
Hope Kristina has a great trip too and good to hear of her passion for motorsport..

Sex on wheels :bowdown:

Very, very nice.
I've thought about a removable front apron as well, but didn't have the nerves to actually do it.

Awesome..

Rob.

Thanks Rob, great to see the hill climp pics, people really under estimate the potential of a beetle. My mate has a dry sumped 2.8 lt type4 and constantly beats 95 % most that turn up to events here. I couldnt open the other link? will try again. Brent.
