Classic 1967 VW Splitty Welding Project


This VW 67 South African Split Screen is our biggest project to date. This split has had an extensive amount of work including full new sides, arches and floor as well as various sections all over.

The customer was determined to do a proper job using the best quality panels available which is great- but means that sourcing parts has been costly and slowed the project down.
