She's ALIVE!!! Yesterday was a successful day finally firing it up and taking it for its first test drive! Once I get some more pics and vids sorted I'll try and upload them later. There is hopefully a pic attached to this message but not the normal way since the hosting site I normally upload pics to is down at the moment.

Thanks guys - yep I am very happy to get it running! (finally)
Haven't completed the audio yet (still working on the amp surrounds to house distro block etc). Re. alarm/immobiliser, I haven't finalised on a particular brand just yet but I will update any progress on the "another beetle audio install" thread in the other section. I am going to talk to the local car audio place shortly (that is where I have got all my other gear from). Re. vids - I have some of the first voyage - once the website that hosts my pics is sorted out (having some problems at the moment) I will try and get them up and post a link here. Cheers again Alan |

The site I have been storing my pics is still down so just went the photobucket option - here are a couple of pics not long after it made its maiden voyage:
I messed about a couple weeks back and made some fibreglass eyelids and shot them in two pack body colour. Gives it a bit of an angry look. Can't decide if I like them or hate them....the good thing is they go on and off easily with double sided tape. And one last shot for now: The car obtained engineer's certification last week and roadworthy certificate - hopefully will be registered and insured this week, plus wheel alignment. A new amp will be replacing those above so that will be documented soon. |

The car looks fantastic!!! :agree: :agree: I don't care for the eyelids. IMO, they detract from the 911 lenses and the overall front end. Leave them for the New Beetles...

Yeah I was just messing around with them to see what they'd look like. They are different but don't think they will be seeing much time on the car!

Finally the Beetle made its first show appearance (at a generic custom car show in town) - this is the first decent pic of the Beetle with a decent camera - courtesy of justdavephotography.com. Captures the paint pretty well although needs full sunlight to really jump to life.

All the images I had attached were down for quite some time, but finally the gallery is back up and running again (although because the links have changed the images still won't be visible in this thread) - but here is the new link to see all the pics from start to finish (well almost finished):
http://www.manxgallery.org/gallery/album95?page=1 Oh yeah, here is a link to a movie of the first run on the day of fire up (dial up users beware) - I will get some clearer vids/sound some time soon. Just click on the movie camera icon thingy. http://www.manxgallery.org/gallery/album06/MOV00060 Last edited by Dasdubber; October 12th 2005 at 07:32. Reason: adding info re. video |
