Looks nice!  How long has it been in storage? A bit of water and some love and it'll be looking right as rain in no time  :cool:

(Karmann made all the mk1 cabs btw ;) )

the shiny ones are after storage. after going and starting her up every once in a while and checking up on her i decided she's too good to stay all dusty so just gave her a wipe over and a polish and ta-da!!

have you brought it out from storage for the summer or was it just a quick clean and then back away with it?

Just noticed you have squirty bumper bits - cool!  :cool:

i got her out for a clean..... but then decided i'd run her over the summer while Elvis is being painted but i also need a cheap little run around that i can park outside my place without being up all night worrying about it going missing!

How about this?  :evil:


Steph Karmann needs some nice shiny wheels, a lowering job and those door protectors taken off..
