'66 Chop top Beetle
Here are a couple of pictures of my wife’s ’66 chop-top Beetle. I bought it for her two years ago for her 30th and have spent the past couple of years getting it to the condition you see it in now. It didn’t always look this clean; it had sat on the previous owner’s drive for the last decade. So when I finally got my grubby little hands on it I stripped it all back and set about getting it back to its former glory.
It’s running a 1641cc engine which has been stripped and powder-coated, and the plan is at some stage to get a longblock in there.
The pictures where kindly taken at my work - we have a photographic area which uses studio quality lighting, but the backdrop is not too good.
