Just wanted to stop by and say hi, Alex and Kim recommended this site to me as i am in the middle of a 1300 beetle project and there may well be some others here doing similar things, or have done them in the past.

I am blogging my progress on Volkszone so probably won't do the same here as well, but would like to hear from any local people with local beetles :0)

Thanks to all :0) in reply to your questions...

My plan is to have it done by the end of the year, doing all the work myself, but time will tell if that's possible.

Yes the floor pans were welded to the floor :0| had to cut the body to get it off. I'm now pondering on the merits of replacing them, having trouble deciding.

I'm Laz on volkszone too :0)

Cheers guys.
