Hello,here are a few pics of my cars and a bit of backgound information .I have been interested in aircooled VWs since my father owned one when i was about 8 years old.I have owned and restored qiute a few over the years but i own only two.
Here is my Sunroof 1953 Beetle.This car is an early oval window model (they changed from Split to oval on March 10th)and the factory fitted sunroof makes this car quite rare for an original UK import.1953 was the first year VW officially imported to the UK and this is an early July car.I have owned this for 10years.
I also have a modified car .This is a 1966 model .
