Re: Trailmix Beetle
After Bruce installed the new CB Performance disc brake kit for the front, I decided that I wanted to find out what the car would look like with all black wheels.

I'm bringing the beetle for a quick stop in to say hi. Never been, looking forward to it.

Re: Trailmix Beetle
We decided a couple of months ago to take the beetle to Indiana for a family reunion. I was excited for my mom to finally get to see it and go for a ride. But we haven't taken the car that far from home and since I haven't been through the internals of the engine, I was unsure of it's ability to do ...

Re: Trailmix Beetle
Update: I bought some aluminum AEW wheels that I've wanted for a while. I just like the look. Unfortunately, the front wheels will not clear the bottom ball joints. As of right now, they are not usable. I would have to narrow the beam, install disc brakes and use a wheel spacer to make them work. Ri...

Re: Trailmix Beetle
Pics after the matte clear coat.
Also the re-painted steering wheel and turn signal assembly. I will probably have to take the assembly apart again to fix some problems.
