 Just wanted to show the work that has been done on the restoration of my Bradley project. The 70 IRS pan is completely new with Ghia disks on front, and a 1600 S.P. for power. I have a long way to go but I'm getting there. Will post more pics as I progress. |

That looks extremely nice, how 'bout some more views like side back and inside?
Great looking finish & paint layout!
Good work! Keep us posted.

I will post some more pics ASAP. I need to finish the strips and "Bradley" lettering yet. This is an original 1979 Anniversary edition body. Still need to paint the roof and rear engine cover. Thanks for the compliment on the paint work. There's a ton of hours invested to get to this point.

Nice work. Black stripes on white always a good eye catcher.

The front whole car photo looked black to me, however the recent close up photo above - center nicely shows the blue color.

  Here is the outside of the car. I have since gotten the "Bradley GT" lettering reproduced and put on. I will have to post some more recent pics. |

I love it. It has a nice clean retro look to it.

Hi Savedbygrace,  Hi everyone. .............................................................. . Let me know what you think. It looks very nice and shows good skills and originality. I applaud anyone who adds some of their own personality to these cars. It doesn't have to be what everyone else has!  But as for me, I like lots of gauges and control knobs. So I went to the other extreme with mine.  |

Thanks. I'm happy with the results so far. It's hard to believe that I started with this 3 years ago.   |

  I just installed a white face gauge kit to the stock Beetle speedo. I also painted the needles using .99 cent WM nail polish. For about 45 min time the gauge looks like a new unit. |
