still the fender beading question.

[Aaron Britcher <abritcher@ezinet.com.au>]

Call me an unsatisfied bastard but I cannot believe that VW made so many 
different beading colours for the T3's to match their paint. I too have 
seen some evidence that they did do this but all the brown shaded cars 
seem to have the same beading colour here, as do all the blues. Not 
convinced. I would like to hear from someone that has seen different 
shades of blue beading for example. I am still looking for a couple of 
bits of green beading for my Velvet Green '64 Notch and do you think I 
can find them? Ha Ha Ha, next question they ask! I have been looking for 
5 years now and it is at the stage that I have given up on restoring the 
Notch and I have concentrated my efforts on the T3 panel van which 
fortunately will use black beading. Even paul at the T3 Detectives in 
the UK has had a nightmare finding NOS black beading for it. He has been 
looking for a little over a year and only has 3 pieces (out of 6) so I 
am flying over to the UK, Holland and Germany to finally get all the 
rubbers etc that I need for the finale of this never ending project. 
Tail gate rubber, Ha Ha Ha, next question? And no the Type 1 stuff will 
not fit correctly as I have seen a car with it and it looked like a dogs 
breakfast which to those not used to seeing a dogs breakfast is very 
messy indeed! 
Glad I am painting the panel van black and not ruby red again!

Aaron. (sorry for the moaning but it was 36 degrees today and I am as 
hot as hell- apparently very hot!)
