Surf 's Up - New Beetle
Seems like there are a lot of VW-enthousiasts over here, so here's my latest finished build.
It started as an New Skool Beetle but it ended up as an Surf Styler (or whatever you wanna call it :mrgreen: ) So what happened? - removed the headrests from the seats (to create some Old Skool feeling) - Cali-style steering wheel - PE Hot-Rod pedals - cleaned bumpers front & back - debaged - Baby-MOON wheels whit white-wall tyres - decals: Hawaiï flowers & pinstripes           Progress of this thing is on my blog (check my signature  )

Re: Surf 's Up - New Beetle
Wow, that looks sweet. It looks like it has some old school flavor. Only minor thing i see is the black on the front window. Did you use paint thinner to correct it or am i blind and its a decal?
Meets thread WORTHY!!!!
