Re: RHD '67 Notch

Passed the Road worthy today and will be on club rego tomorrow... The wheels and brakes are temporary as I am waiting for my wheels to return from paint. To say that I am happy is an understatement 8) https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2124964.jpg https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2124963...

Re: RHD '67 Notch

After missing out on these a few years ago, I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to purchase these NOS front vent trims when they were offered to me earlier this year. 8) https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2117469.jpg https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2117468.jpg https://www.thesamba...

Re: RHD '67 Notch

Next on the list was rebuilding the vent windows with new seals. The first set of seals I got were trash so I ordered a new pair from ISP and they were top quality. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2113424.jpg https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2113423.jpg https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gal...

Re: RHD '67 Notch

So nice to be putting parts back on... the chrome works well with the Red 8) Not a massive fan of the VW1600 badge on the decklid so I decided to go with the script badge.

Re: RHD '67 Notch

Some more recent photos. For a first attempt at painting, I am very happy with the results after a colour sand and buff. A lot of work so far but it is becoming more rewarding as it comes together https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2056476.jpg https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2056475.jpg...

Re: RHD '67 Notch

With the priming all finished I got to work with applying the colour. This was all done in stages and over a period of a couple of months and as time provided. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2056447.jpg https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2056448.jpg https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/...

Re: RHD '67 Notch

With the concrete all finished up, I got to work doing the final sanding and priming on the panels. These are the only panels I got photos of in the final prime. My first time using a spray gun, I was pretty happy with the result https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/2056446.jpg https://www.thesam...

So dad and I decided to dig out the gravel in the second bay of the shed and prepare it for concrete. Not only was it going to be ...

Got my seats back a bit over a week ago. Extremely happy with how they have turned out.
