Default Anyone want to make me a sig? Please :)

I thought It'd be nice with a sig of my Beetle, could someone with some skills make me one? Using pics from this thread: http://forum.finalgear.com/viewtopic...520&highlight=

I'd really really appreciate it ...

say God Damn images/smilies/eek.gif nice sig IMO!!!!!!!!!! (pssst: it's not a 1303_S ---> it's a 1300 images/smilies/biggrin.gif ) this is because the previous owner badged it 1303_S, put 1303_S back"fenders" on it and the 1600 cc engine which belonged in the 1303_S .... but it's really a 1300

thx for the job!

The picture quality (technically speaking, not contentwise or so) arent the best, they look a bit pixelish, so regardless of which signature you decide to go with, I wouldn't make it too big.

Anyway, here's my quick go at it. Hope you like it.

edit: forgot to add a something, pic changed, all fine now. images/smilies/smile.gif

You could stick some writing in the space, but I didn't know what to put, so I didn't

^ that has my vote, loads of character.


here the psp file if anyone else wants a try. The 1303 is on another layer, so it should be easy to edit:

I first wanted to do the piuc overheat did, but Pdanevs one looks awesome, use that one!

And Haz, how did the owner put 1303 fenders on your beetle? What's the difference.. images/smilies/wacko.gif

I went for Overheat's one, but it was a close call between it and Pdanev's one, thanks alot guys images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/mrgreen.gif images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Now I'm even more proud of ma' Beetle images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

I'm picking it up from the mechanic today. Two dampers cost me 55 $ each, so that's 110 $ + mechanic which charges ca. 31 $ an hour, and he said it'd take 2-4 hours to fix.
So all in all around $ 200 isn't, IMO ... can't wait to pick it up images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

well, my theory (I didn't ask him..), is that he wanted it to be a 1303_S and not a 1300. So he put in the engine that belonged to the 1303_S (1600 cc) + changed the fenders to 1303_S ones ... beats me ... in the long run I will change the fenders back, but it will take some time, due to paint issues etc. ...
But the original badge is coming on soon images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Do you still have the receipt? I think those fenders look like normal 1300..

And which dampers did you replace?

no, he did it in 1987 ... fenders are different from a 1300, cuz the 1303_S came in 1974 and mine is from 1970. Different fenders and tail lights.

Replaced both the front ones images/smilies/smile.gif

Hmmm shockabsorbers? Are those called dampers too? Steeringdamper...only one...or is it the spring..?

You should've tried it yourself! Would be a great learningschool..get yourself a jack (sp?) for 20euros and try some shizzle yourself. images/smilies/smile.gif
