Came across this replica for sale. Car has California tags. This thing has roll up windows and a fold down windshield. Doors are hinged at the front. I’ve also never laid eyes on side panels with that louver treatment.

Yep. They can be shortened, as you discovered. Couple years ago as I finalized my Spyder build I discovered the same issue—the shaft length that had looked perfect in mock-up was, in reality, not quite perfect,
That kit uses a stock Beetle assy. so it was down to cutting the slotted end and re-slotting it for the stock D clamp. Pushed it in a…[Read more]

Booked at the hotel and will be there. I haven’t started my TDr all winter so wish me luck. It’s on the battery tender again so should start with a little nudge or two.
