After the paint job, work on seats started and are now repaired and painted . Overall seats were in good condition except for some pipes on the base which were hammered in the past. Safdar repaired the seats and then were transferred to Zaheer ustad for seat cover installation. I decided to go with Red interior and bought both seat covers and door cards from TMI.

Both doors are complete now and all door components including rubbers, moldings, door handles and mechanisms are installed. We can now lock the car.
Bumpers were in very bad condition so i ordered new one and till they arrive i decided to cover the old ones with truck art so that car is safe from possible hitting. Wiring was started and all front and rear blinkers along with headlights and dome light are installed.
Started applying Quickroof all over the floor, inside doors, inside quarter panels and on the cargo shelf for sound deadening and stopping vibrations and car is now so so quiet now despite the fact that engine sound is high because tappets are not properly tight. Installed the original Automatic Alternator as the one installed was not mine, changed the pulley as well with a brand new German one.
Awesome is an insufficient word for the effort, hard work you have put into the beetle......thumbsup
