Rosslyn: Aircooled Flatwindow

[oprahhwinfreyy]

These guys sell a kit but it stops at 64. Supposedly they developing a kit for the later standard beetles and there are a few others out there that are in progress. You might be able to purchase they 64 and earlier kit and adapt it to work on yours depending on personal fab skills

put the new fuel filter on today. Gonna go a couple counties over to get a set of set of wheels. just the standard 5 lug hub cap wheel. Im thinking of either two toning them white and something, or just painting them all white, with the chrome hub cap center. ideas?

Does this mean you aren't selling it?

It was up in the air for a bit but the other one that seemed awesome wasn't really all it cracked up to be. Owner lied and the thing wouldnt even turn over.
So no. Its staying.

This is so classy. The color is awesome ! I never seen a yellow Bug before.
It's just beautiful

New Pics. No updates. been slow with the car. found some oil leaks, gonna fixem soon.

UPDATE:

Could possibly be selling the beetle.
I found an older model in the color I wanted to painted this one with everything working and better pans and everything basically. For about half the price I paid for this one. So thats that. plus i screwed my finger on a lathe today so no updates on the yellow for a while.

take a look.

So when adjusting the valves and timing and stuff, one of those bolts that holds the oil screen thing on the bottom of the block is stripped and leaking oil. Also we discovered the engine will need to be rebuilt next year if its to last.

What kind of camera/lens are you using? Cuz this is the type of photography Im into,just undecided on which camera I want at the moment haha

In that particular set of photos im using a combo of a Nikon D300S and a Nikko 35mm F/1.8. All of the photos I've taken in the thread have either been with the 35 or a 16-35mm F/4.

I wish I could go back to when I got it and instead, get a 7D with a 35mm 1.4.

Next week im trading in the 16-35 for a 50 1.4 + extra money from the 16-35

So I made a to do list. OCD forced me to write it in word instead of just writing in the thread. Sorry for so many pics.
