|
|
1) 1973 Thing: I'm going to have Joey Cagle build up a 1776 for me. The car is just sitting at his shop right now.
2) 1969 Westy: Just needs an engine put in (got one!) and all that jazz. Pretty good shape overall. Need to replace a few interior panels and am going to install some bamboo flooring in the cargo floor.
3) 1964 Type 3 Ghia: Body is in decent shape. Needs new front quarters and a little work elsewhere. This is my "long term" project. Want to take my time and get it looking and running good. Those who come to the tech day on March 21st will see it firsthand. _________________ The Slumlord

Good thinking Mark. We wouldn't want you to get this on the road in a hurry like you have done with your other projects. _________________ 73 Typ481

We may have Mary's squareback running & stopping with the e-brake We Might just have to use a gas can for the fuel tank though _________________ Give me a salad & a PBR please |

Reroute the brake fluid reservoir hose to the carburetor. Fill the reservoir with gas. It'll stop by the time you need to..... _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam
