Love this thread, I have a 77 Scarab 300 that we are just starting to restore, thanks for taking the time to walk us through your experiences

No problem.

I guess it's time to add a little to this thread.
The side panels and the vinyl that wrapped around the fairing was starting to fall apart and the staples and screw were breaking through.
I decided it was time to build up and sew new side panels.
