Nice paint job, keep up the good work. If you intend to visit Holland, you must go to a VW meeting, very relaxed and cool and of course with very low cars.

Bought them from a swedish webshop: http://www.classicbildelar.com/home.asp

I think that Volkswarenhaus also have them in stock this year.

Default Long time, no update....

Due to serious lack of motivation to continue this project I haven't done anything this winter. But suddenly the urge to finish her got to me and I went out shopping some "stuff".
Got the last part of the outer roof finished so now I can finally "close the hatch". :laugh:






Got myself IMHO a pretty cool fire extinguisher too, chrome with flamezzz!




Next up is to get the engine out for an overhaul and some finishing touches in the engine bay. Here's a pic of the engine in it's current state, and a quick try out of the Firetruck red color that I'm supposed to paint the bay with. Think it'll be a cool contrast to the matte black paint. In addition to the red paint, I think some chrome is in order here!




Went to the local Mooneyes shop today and bought me some cool stuff. Bullets, stickers and a nice touch for the front headlights.
Mounted the bullets in the holes for the original front lip which I wasn't planning on using anyway, think it came out pretty cool.










...and here's some period pieces.






And the Maltese on the trunk lid




Later...

Default Engine update...

Small update on the engine work...

I've spent part of this week getting the engine out of the car, dismantling it, cleaning it, (yikes!), some parts swapping and painting it.
I chose to paint the entire engine block and transmission black, with just som minor details in a silver color, no sense in going overboard. I haven't decided what to do with the valvecover yet so I just sandblasted it to get it clean, I think maybe red is in order here, I dunno. The timing belt cover will probably be painted black as well.

Some finish work on the starter, alternator and distributor is what's left before I can put it back togheter and start on the engine bay.

Updates will follow....

Some pics...

Enigine side 1, 2 and 3...










Transmission...




Thats it... =)

Default Golden carb...

Been doing some serious cleaning and painting on my carb the last couple of days. I opted for the golden color from the Olds Rocket engines! I think it blends right in there with the 50's theme.

Think it came out kinda cool, either you like it or you don't!













Kinda blurry this last pic...




More to come....
