Patina ideas for the '72....















Here are a few ideas for the bay's rattyness. The Beltek (with the exception of Manflowers!) seems to be the best match but the finish on the Bay at the top is spot on!


Just to make sure that everything is above board, some of the images have been borrowed from...


This guy is selling VW's all over the world and you could really benefit from giving him a call or email.

Bit of an ugly duckling at the moment but thought I would add a busselecta version too (yes I know I'm bordering on clinical sadness...)

New T Shirts and new Brand Name!!!




Here at FSD we are constantly striving to provide greater range to our customers...so here are 2 of the latest additions.

The Pleasure Chest is a tongue in cheek take on the 1950's 'Pleasure Chest Coolers' but we thought it might look good on the front of girls 't's...get it???

The second is a new brand name to the FSD stable.....'White Wall'. We will be adding some brand new yet retro designs throught the winter ready for the next season so keep an eye out and grab a bargain!!

New Ideas for the site!!!


OK, we have been looking around at the layout of different sites and thought we'd copy some of the ideas Mooneyes has come up with.

Over the next few weeks you'll see details of the next shows we will be attending and 'featured products' on the home page. There will be reduced costs for certain featured items and maybe introductory prices for a limited period. We have some one off items too that will be on the home page so when they are gone they're gone!

Don't miss out on keeping up to date on the Red9Design / Sam Skelding project car that will feature some new trick suspension from R9D and accessories from FiftySixDelux - we plan to do a write up at key stages of the build!

The Red9Design site is now eagerly anticipating a rebuild too, so watch out for Type2 power steering, VW application wishbone suspension and a completely new range of wheel adaptors! There will be a fully integrated shopping cart so you can pay using credit card and have your ordered delivered within days!

FiftySixDelux is now associated with a new firm...'ManFlower'... top quality VW resto's from Mr ManFlower himself! Look out for the ManFlower Split in 2008! Keep yours Google eyes open for the ManFlower website 'suppliers of flowers since 1967' and going digital in 2008!!!

### WANTED ###

OK....so those of you that know us are fully aware that we are after a project Bay Window.

We have a few subtle Hot Rod plans so anything that has only just missed an MOT will be considered.

Please send pictures to info@fiftysixdelux.com

Cheers!

New Web Space....

Although there is no real change to the site we have moved it from the free webspace to 'Nefarious' webspace. Same home as Volkszone and many other VW related websites.

It means that we can add loads more products to the site over the winter and the bandwidth is greater to cope with the hits that we are hoping for when we advertise next year in Ultra.
