Nice work! Be a shame to cover it in carpet... seriously tho, it shows how far standards have risen in the last 10 years or so. Beetles arent the cheap disposable cars they were. I hope the aftermarket realises that and produces some better repair panels. We've got Hooky and Autocraft, Wolf and Gerson for the early stuff, but I'd like to see companies like Veng and Klokkerholm just looking after their tools to produce decent quality panels in reasonable thickness steel. Anyway, rant over! Please continue with putting my repairs to shame!

I totally agree mate. I've found since starting the rebuild that there is a lack of decent repair panels for sixties bugs. There seems to be more available for earlier cars, even splits. I suppose it's a demand thing, maybe now as people are repairing sixties bugs to a nice standard the panel companies may take note and start offering correct pressings that not only fit but look right too. Easier said than done I suppose. I'm glad companies like hookys and virtanen , wolf and autocraft are about. I've tried to tell Steve Hook to look into cross members and boot floor edges as these are common rust areas. PS, no carpet is covering my repairs , not even the front.
