It looks great but my the time you add on all the extras you are some where near an original all be it one that money would have to be spent ,but a Speedster would never come close price wise to an original
Is this the company you were talking about?

Thats the one ...looks a lovely replica but at that price one could get an original for the same kind of money all be it not to this finish and in need of serious work done to it .
The 356 replica is another matter you could never get one for more like 10 times the amount.
Still looks a nice car and they JPS have nice web site .try www.jps-motorsports.com

Hey Dom

Small world! I hope you have picked up your Martin and Walker kit.

Here is th elink to the Grazzledazzle thread in Volkszone:
http://www.volkszone.com/VZi/showthread.php?t=651360
It also has the white with black coupe in it and the current owner also chimes in!

I'm still waiting to hear about the shipping cost to the US of A from Martin and Walker. It's a shame as a rust free IRS beetle project has come up locally but I'm reluctant to buy it before I know I can get the kit over here for a decent price.

Try roger bray, I got a pair from him, straight and good condition - had them rechromed though which upped the cost a bit.
