Turtlebacks indeed, lovely on a Type 3. Though this car sure does them justice as well.

Could be a 1300S badge, not sure if it's really a 1300S though...

I would presume it's a 1300s or as it's also known a GT Beetle. This is mine which is just back on the road after a 6 year resto so next on the list are some fat & skinny tyres followed by a lowering up front.
The 1300s/GT Beetle is a rare car. Here in Ireland only 32 were brought in officially by VW originally but as demand grew the Irish dealers took some of the UK's allocation AFAIK.

Great car Coxy ! Your friend's car is nice too.
I read somewhere that GT Beetles were only sold in UK (and Ireland maybe).

Thanks. It's not done yet but it's getting there. The 4x4 stance is horrible but that will be nose down, arse up shortly  Grin

You're right, the 1300s Bugs were imported into Ireland and the UK but the UK dealers rebadged their cars as GT Beetles but that was up to the dealer at the time so many remained as 1300s Bugs. Beetles were made in Ireland as CKDs but as these were special editions they were imported.

That's one of my favorites. The guy published a build post on the Samba and built a real nice motor for it.

YES! That late model is looking nice, Nico. Only thing I'd remove are the rear gravel guards. Maybe the front turn signals, too. Beautiful car, though.

Saw a pic of a beautiful late model in Ultra VW this month in the Bug-In write-up - a red one, dechromed with colour coded bumpers (indicators in the bumper), detailed Fuchs alloys and a perfect stance. I suspect it's a Mexi or something like that, I remember seeing one in Sheffield when I lived there that was stock but for the Revolution alloys and the lowered front, perfect factory cal looker!

Nico, that late model is nice, very clean car, My all time favorite is Dustin's 69'. I kid with him sometimes when I see him that I'll trade him my seats for his car. He likes my seats and I like his car. Dustins car is done very tastefully, very clean, the color is one of my favorites. Below is a couple of pics from another post of Dustins car. Enjoy.
