Thanks for the pics... Car looks great... My favorite Beetle color.. White..
Sorry to see Your Beetle with a damaged rear end...

You will be able to replace the engine lid with a later model so Your engine can breath easier... eerrrr  cool easier.....

Nice looking car.  What type of exhaust are you using?

Hiya Eraser,

Looking Good!  Except for that last picture.

Howdy again,
Took it down to the crash repair place (best in SA) owner is a VW lover so not scared about leaving it there, but it is approx $2000AU damage, mainly cause that rear apron is bent and un fixable so gotta cut it off and replace it. This also includes a propper repaint.

Lee: Its actually a Porche pearl (slightly off white).
Untitled: Well long storey short, Its a Monza 1600 exhaust but customised to fit on the beetle, will try and get some pics of it as i havent seen any done like it like custom heater tubest from the heater boxes ect.

Day after i posted these pics im driving along and the seat welds actually broke its ok i welded it all back up but thats gotta be the hardest thing to do ever drive normally wityh a seat that likes to rock backwards when you accelerate.

Anyway thanks for your comments will get a pic or two of the engine as well when i can get the light right for a good pic.

Why don't You drill off the old rear valance and fit a removeable fiberglass one... it makes taking the engine out so so easy.... even with the rear wheels on the ground....  Fellow in Brisbane makes them...
only about $60 from memory....   John Sherman is the fellow..

I have been wondering where in the world You live...  You haven't filled out Your profile properly...  luckily I just saw the number plate on Your beetle...
Not a lot of Aussie people on here...
How about filling in Your profile...
cheers
