The front axle beam on Bruce's limited edition Sunshine Beetle had seen better days and was too far gone to be repaired safely so we hunted out a RHD replacement standard front axle. Sadly, all genuine used axles we find also needed significant repairs and our hunt for a good quality reproduction RHD standard beam proved to be fruitless with all the main parts suppliers being out of stock with no restock date. Finding a LHD beam to convert to was the same story until we struck it lucky and got the last remaining LHD standard front beam.
We had to convert the axle beam to RHD and after a few hours, Bruce's Beetle was back on its wheels ready for the spring.
