Restoring a VW beetle- Projekt Spartacus.
A Thread.

My First car at 23 was a VW beetle named Dorothy.

Years later, I am restoring another. My daily driver is 210bhp. I want to experience 45bhp of the VW more!

After lots of scouting, I have finally found the one.

Kazi ya Kalasinga naskia haina kasoro.
The drums with 4 holes have now been engineered to fit 5bolts for the 5 hole rims.

Muchina huchimba milima barabara ipite, kwani mashimo na bolts ni kitu ya kukasirikia mtu?

If you’ve been wondering where the good men are, well, they are under their car, working on the car, thinking about the car or buying parts….

We went dumpster diving yesterday and came out with this straight fit VW rims.

We will dip them in paint remover to remove all paint. Use a grinder to remove scratches and some alum filler for the deep ones.

Proper prep with primer and a final shiny black coat loading…..
