Steve, that is just gorgeous! I must say that I totally agree with the changes you have made with the wheels and mirrors....stock is where it's at!! I am going to be in a right dilemma when it comes to getting another vdub.....oval bug, ghia, early bug cab, deluxe splitty or early bay are the faves at the moment
