Hey guys,
Some of you know me already from thesamba or the aircoolers. Here is my 55 oval threefold. Its running a 2332 ida motor, Berg 5 speed, 3x 4.5's and 2 deep six earlies, a W vert lid, all og fenders, aprons, doors etc. And a whole host of accessories, Petri Pealit, Perohaus clock, Perohause grab handle, trip 55 speedo, Huls recliners, and a couple of other tricks....

Here are some of my OG accessories. Don't fake Funk :D
Image
In this pic we see A cog 100mm gas cap, a 1955 trip speedo, and a very rare OG Petri Pealit I had restored at Bob Koch's, and painted a one off color.

Image
Here are my 1955 dated Huls Recliners. As you can imagine they allow the stock seats to recline. The early ones such as these are getting hard to come by. Mine are NOS, and took 3 years to find.

Image
This is an oval era Perohaus clock wiht th correct step up and grill. The whole thing was restored for me by VW legend Bob Sowersby of California fame.
