Welcome. Looks like a nice start. Don't feel bad, most of the restoration body parts we find here in the US are from Brazil as well.
Keep the updates coming.

thanks

yes, that is, but I have problems with accessories, glass and doors, but they buy them in a month would be arriving in Paraguay approximated accessories!

The Käfer already painted, just need to build, I have no photos for now! I lift more pics soon

the oil cooler is further back, so the cylinder 3 is free of hot air

that is the factory doghouse shroud made in Brazil, hot air exits through a round output to a hose , unlike the german/chinese doghouse which is rectangular

The original consists of 3 parts, I have saved much rust, so I put the Brazilian, but the engine is German!
