With the body shell stripped of paint, it was time for a first installation of the doors and wings.
Our garden shed contained a vast array of Beetle parts for the duration of the project. Periodic stocktaking was required to keep tabs on what was out there.
Sadly, the Marine Blue velour material used for to cover the seats in Last Edition Beetles is now unobtainable. However, we chose a fabric with a reasonably similar colour to the original and Barbara, the upholstery specialist at Melvyn Rutter Limited stitched the new covers to reproduce the pattern, so they look very authentic.
