Spotted the above mentioned KG on the weekend. It was quite a few cars in front of me getting onto the freeway and it did better merging at speed than most idiots in modern cars. It actually took a while to catch up, so it gets along just fine at 100! I'd guess it's more a later 60's going by the wh...

That's the one.....it's a pity the front plate fell off(got stolen) years and years ago, you'd never be able to replace it with a period correct one. Last I spoke to her she wouldn't sell for anything less than what it would cost for her to buy a new car, and fair enough I guess. Also, being her mot...

:lol: 40's is middle aged to me(and I'm 35)....average life is 80-85ish, so around there. :wink: The 8lack oval I used to see around Kenmore and that my mate said he saw recently turned off towards Mt Crosby was OG 8lack(but maybe a later respray I guess), ratty and on original Q plates.....it'd be ...

By middle aged I'm guessing mid-late 40's(ish). I've seen it a few times too in the Kenmore area....and what about that 8lack oval, same area? Older lady driver? Original ratty condition? I wonder if it's the one I saw a good 6 or so years ago somewhat regularly and then it disappeared. I had a good...

When I spoke to Das Resto about 4 weeks ago about Gasburners they said they'd be putting in an order in the next few weeks and that they'd then be 10 weeks away(so probably still 8 or so weeks away). I needed something immediately and went with Cosmics from CIP as they were my preferred wheel anyway...

I thought '54/'55 handles were unique and that makes sense about it being LH locking with them not bothering to switch it for RH countries early on. I saw TEX yesterday which is a LHD car and his handles are obviously set up that way. But looking back at old pics of my '55 it had a RH locking handle...

1954 or just Oval Beetle parts - wipers/door handle/s?
Just a few things I'm after for now, but I'm sure I'll be adding a few bits as I think of them or find out what I need/want. I can't remember what exactly is '54/'55 specific and what's just oval specific, I need to brush up on my knowledge. I need some wipers for my '54, prefer year specific or if ...

Unless there's a new Amanda, the one I just spoke to on the phone is most certainly Canadian, but she said she deals with all us Aussies by word of mouth(from on here obviously).....so maybe we were just led to believe she was an Aussie!?!?! Anyway, she was a great help as the wheels I wanted weren'...
