One of my own project cars here, my 1995 Mexican Import 1600i Beetle. I’ve always loved these late-model Mexican cars, and this low mileage Pearlescent green example ticked every box for me when I found it in February of this year. It was solid where it really mattered, un-messed-with and oozed pure potential! Some light structural and body work was taken out including: floor pan rear outer corners (around jack point area), rear bumper mounts, front valence, spare wheel well repairs and some small repairs to the front inner wings. Once this work was out of the way, the real fun could start! German style bumpers and bright work were fitted up in place of the body-coloured Mexican items, and the bodywork cleaned up and treated to a proper paint correction. Then in the stance department...

Colour wise I chose an old English white, and then finished with detailed Big Logo ‘caps and whitewall inserts.

Never skipped a beat and gave me nothing but s
