Good, that's all that matters.

Picked up a set of these today! Been itching to get my hands on them for a while.

Oooo flat tires. I got a set on my super and one on my 67. Lol.
Rims look nice man. Nice find

Well she started just fine this morning. Yee haw. It worked!!

Another crappy dark iphone pic, but I got the passenger area roof panel cut and test fitted. What a b@t%h!!! Still need to trim the passenger side down about 1/8 inch and trim the rear so that it ends in the middle of the rear support bow. Then I'll start working on the rear roof panel.

Those are good looking wheels.
Gonna get an SP2 to put them on?

KC

Got my pair of baby dells rebuilt. Should get them mounted up on the SP2 tomorrow.
Webers for sale soon.

Got the baby dells installed on the SP2.
Need to rerun all the fuel lines but fired up pretty easy and seemed to idle and rev good.

Got my stickers on the bug. They look pretty sweet.

Set a new personal best. Went from engine sitting on a table and new clutch in a box at 5:15 to driving it around the block by 6:45. And that even included having figure out how to loosen a severily over tightened clutch cable. Thanks for the help, Pete.

Don't forget Rachel helped too!!

Took apart the driver's door on the Squareback today- the door wouldn't lock or unlock, so I figured I pull the door latch out- didn't realize that the window and window regulator and window channel had to come out just to get the latch out- what a pain! At least I got to lubricate everything so the window goes up and down smoothly, and the door latch is working like it should be

Put the cross shaft in the trans and put the motor back in. Started the bus up and drove it around the parting lot at work. Still didnt fix my clutch slipping problem. So the motor comes back out tomarrow for a new clutch.

Man, that cross shaft was pretty messed up!

Ground off the stops on the bolt hole to get ready to install a 1600 dual port in the 66. Installed the 12 flasher box I built from relays and a flasher. Installed a 6 to 12 volt solid state converter on the winshield wipers, It seems to work ok. Installed 12 volt solenoid on my 6 volt starter. I found out someone had replaced the 6 volt horn with a 12 volt horn, Thats why it didn't work when it was 6 volts. I changed my homemade 6 volt radio to a 12 volt radio, all I need is some speakers. Here is some Pictures of my flasher relay

What fuel pressure regulator are you using, Brandon?

Looks great Brandon. Where did you get all that shag to park it on?

lower it!

I believe it is a Carter regulator.
That shag is my lawn!
It will be coming down soon. The front was bottomed on the shocks so I had to replace those first.

those air filters are cute it all looks awsome

Got the new clutch kit put in today.
