Only probelm i keep encountering is that if i fit a turbo i'll lose the rear decklid and possibly will encounter some issues with the headers,... lets see i'll go heck on the build in a few days.

Woho! Storm is in form! Good going buddy, excellent job at chopping. I would love to see this under going project whenever I visit Isb.

[fedd]

Most probably the colour would be like that. Pretty catchy!

[Storm]

@fedd
thanks buddy, but like i told people a few days ago, i'm now in full "VW mode". you are more than welcome at any time to come check it out (skullbox, khubaub salman1230 see its progress regularly) I love that orange one with the small block V8,.. will be looking to go for a similar wheel/tyre package if i don't go for 17's...

[Storm]

colour will be either lotus chrome orange

lamborghini orange

or nissan sunset orange

or chevrolet sunset orange

Check out this New Beetle i found which is painted in lambo orange

@storm
I just checked this topic... interesting... so in what stage is the superbeetle right now?

[Storm]

@omaqsood
a little further than what it looks like on page 12 of this thread, we have to remove the body and fit new floors to it this week,... well we'll start this week but i have no idea how long it'll take to finish the floors yet.

Have had new floors stanped out of 18 guage metal (specially made in PK with original ridges and bends) as opposed to the stuff which comes from mexico (which is thinner).

I believe in promoting local people if they are good, so i used an old metal guy i knew. he does a great job and has supplied floors fo a few of my friends beetles as well (but i'm getting thicker than stock ones for added rigidity)

[omaqsood]

Cool best of luck!

[Storm]

@omaqsood
thanks buddy, it's a very slow build because i'm trying to wait till all the parts arrive from the Uk first (and i had to complete a 66 for a friend first (it's done now)

@charterali
thanks buddy

[Storm]

i am self emplyed, that's why i'm up at this time,.. got a HUGE order coming through and i have to get the details frommy counterpart aborad.

[charterali]

Ther was this ferrari of a rapper posted on Pakwheels in something called as montoay or montana(dont know the correct word) orange. It looked pretty nice aswell. Dont go for nissan orange, it looks kinda irritating.

[Storm]

are you reffering to the Ascari orange colour?

[gem_guy]

@Storm bhai...

What abt this orange?

Good luck with yr beetle...
More colour choices=more confusions!

[gem_guy]

And i'm gonna confuse you..

This one seems to be nice!

[fedd]

@Storm... Waise Sameer Bhai if by any means you get your hands on those type of Rims which are in my last posted V8 Bug. Man it will look B.E.U.tiful!!! Try getting those because that style in not common and looks really ultimate!

[Storm]

@gem_guy
i really like the mitsubishi orange but my paint guy doesn't have the code for it as yet,.. it'll be a few weeks at leats (if not months) till it's time for paint so lets hope i can decide by the.

@Fedd
i'd love to but i'm inclined towards porsche 911 rims (17 inch) at the moment.

@STORM
@ALL

Try this website HOUSEOFKOLOR.COM u'll be amaze.

[Storm]

@MOLA316
thanks for the lik but since HOK doesn't have a showroom or a paintbooth in PK it'll be a little difficult for me....

Since i'm not going for a custom paint job (graphics, pinstripeing, etc) all i need ot do is choose a colour and BAM!

Thanks (Y)
