My 50's Bonneville Style Ruffrod Golf Cabriolet

StampedeOfNorway's 1981 Volkswagen Cabriolet

Totally stripped down. Welded the small amount of rust that was on the car. Painted matte black, masked and painted flames myself with an airbrush. Added small chrome euro bumpers, and alot of 50's period pieces like Moondisc hubcaps, peep mirror, lionpaw exhaust tail. The seats are covered with new vinyl from TMI in the USA. The speedo dials are made by myself, with a 50's pinup babe theme. The car is lowered about 85mm with an adjustable suspension kit from Formel K, Germany. The wheels are Golf GTI 6x14 with 185/55x14 tires and whitewalls.
