Hey Chris, where can I get replacement running boards cheaper than German ones for my 71 Super Beatle convertible ? Thank you.
My 69 was undercoated back in the early 80s, it's not very pretty underneath but it's also the reason the car is still alive and not in the scrap yard.
Hey chris thanks for the vids! I have a question, I didn’t know there was different sizes of running boards. I was looking at Wolfsburg west and noticed there’s 17mm and 30mm such would be correct for a late 1960 December beetle it’s basically a 61. Thanks again!
I put new ones on and the door is hitting the new boards. The door never hit the old ones. They seem to have too much of a hump. Can I hammer it down flat?
Thanks again Chris you do a great job with these Videos and the website is awesome Cheers Mark (Australia)
There are huge gaps 1-1.5 inches between the fender and the ends of the running board when I mount them to the vehicle first. Is this normal? Thanks for your response.
Ok so you watched about 3 hours, then apparently you have not gone to my website after it pops up each time in front of the video or by simply clicking the link in the descriptions. By going to my website, you would have noticed my past project/sales of all the full restorations we have done. Each restoration show HUNDREDS of pictures of the BEFORE and AFTER PROGRESS of the car as it is restored. Hmmm, this might take you another 3+ hours. I do these videos on spare time, for no money.
i have watched about 3 of your videos do you ever show the work in progress or what to actually do or just talk?
do you think you could sell me the boards the way you make them so i can instal them my self ?
thanks this helped alot i didnt want to spend $200 on the fancy german running boards but also i didnt want to get the mexican ones and hate them
