Colonial Cleaners bus in for some suspension upgrades & brake work.

12volt conversion to this very solid '63 Bug.

Bug engine stand off's are great for the extra cooling, but allow the rain into the engine bay when parked up, so open-able / close-able stand-off design in the making.

Well it will be once finished...

 Fresh back from the chrome plating shop, so more OG parts ready to refit.

Back for Phase 2, rear suspension, engine & finishing details.

Always try to use OG tinware, it will fit better & perform better. This is why I regularly source OG tinware for blasting & re-powder coating.

The original German cylinder tins have vanes that help to direct air flow over the cylinders. The German engineers knew you needed it.

Aftermarket cylinder tins do not have these vanes. The Chinese decided you didn't need it.

Are you wearing your sunglasses, as this one has some shine!!!

Lovely US import bus, with an amazing resto. Everything just works on this bus, its in such great shape.

Relocating the indicators into the headlight bowls made easy.

US Import '57 in for a servo.

Engine & gearbox install.
