Beetle Update

Well there hasn't been much news to report on the progress of the '59 as we have been busy with Vintage Air and waiting for the garage to be built. We did however order a full set of mid-weight fibreglass wings from Day Mouldings and wee pick these up this weekend. We opted for the mid-weight ones as the bug will be occasionally street driven and the raceweight wings are a bit flimsy and could get damaged by stones etc easily. We've have heard really good reports about Day Mouldings wings so we're excited to see how they turn out! Pictures will follow once we have picked them up.

We have also just started to put together plans with our engine builder in the states so that should be ordered/built soon! 2332cc 51.5mm IDA's......... Nice!
