Gallerylimebug’s 49 beetle build is an idea dreamt up and brought to reality by of some of the UK’s finest tradesmen. Having the chance to work on such a car was a real honour, I actually wired the car twice due to me not being happy with the initial finish on the loom. The end […]

GalleryLyndon’s 64 Fubar
Type 1
Lyndon’s 64 build has to be seen to be believed, the level of modification and detail is far above what I think most people had seen before and its a real testament to Lyndon’s vision and determination. Quite simply it is a stunning Beetle. In the grand scale of things my input was small but […]
GallerySlambassador Rod
Type 1
This rod built by Denis of Slambassador fame truly is a one off build. Extended floorpan and some fine welding and fabrication throughout make this one seriously rigid bug. As per the general theme Denis wanted the bare minimum of wires and fuss, so that is what he got when i made the bespoke loom. No original switch gear was wanted, I was given three toggle switches and a cut off switch to complete the build with! I knew there was no point in arguing...
GalleryH’s Trike build
Type 1
This trike had sat neglected in a lock up for a long time then H decided it was time to sort it out once more. after purchasing a buggy loom and attempting the job he decided against it, which is where i came in. Lots of lights, electronic speedo and gauge display were wired in and the beast lived once more. Im still due to visit it once again to add some led strips for added bling..

Robin's 55 was freshly painted and a cloth braided loom sourced for the rewire. My earliest bug to date and a real joy to work on. This cars history is vast and Robin knows most of it to date and i suspect always will.
GalleryDavyd’s buggy build
Type 1
Asked originally to do a tidy up of the original messy loom, Davyd later decided to have me make a new bespoke loom. With the battery re located upfront and the loom running along internally through the shell which left the floorpan free of cables and connections.
GalleryMark’s country buggy
Type 1
Mark brought me in to go over the wiring on his very special import. Designed by Volkswagen Australasia Ltd in 1967, this country buggy or type 197 was a real cute car and great to get to grips with this mixed bag of vw parts and styles.
GalleryAndy’s rad ratrod part rewire
Type 1
Andy's rat rod had previously been part wired and i was given the task of finishing the job on this 2015 bug jam winner. by far the raddest car Ive had the pleasure of working on. The one off bits just keep coming with this and the dash with an Austin clock pod look like they have always been there.
