Hi Sean,

Glad to see your progressing well with your car - you're certainly going to town!

I've spent the last two days stripping my custom 412 variant ready for minor welding and a full inside and out respray in a different colour.

I have virtually all the custom parts bought - just need a friendly bank manager for the rest!!!

Cool Car am building a similar one (1969).
to black out the window chrome on two door cars use type 25 vanagon seals they are very similar and some cutting and shutting will allow them to fit.

How about going with 89-93 Passat front-smooth looking, maybe you could duplicate the entire front panel-euro headlights, grilless section in between, cool plus still factory VW.
