Heater chanel part two

Done.

Here the driver side.
Much less work.

Heater channel part one

Remember?

Cutted and cleaned

Channel is closed

Panel is closed.

Because it was to late in the night to make noise

I don not finish grinding.

I also cleaned the wheelhouse and frontpanel 

to bare metal and coated it with industrial primer. 

Interior

New vinyl seat covers and side panels delivered by meisterberg.com

1776 first run

See here a vid of the first fire up of my freshly build 1776 engine.

For testig I put that engine into in my mexican Bug.

Ignition setting was bad and a single stock carreburator was installed

 instead of the Weber I´ve ordered 2 days before testing.

They are allready here now.

BUG (again) !

Bought me a `68 Bug and a completly restored pan for it.

 Small accident demage at the bumper bracket.

 Heaterchanel end at the front of passenger 

side need some welding.

Driver side looks good.

 This whorst repaired areas need attention too.

Same on drivers side.

 Ragtop.

Iam not a friend of this 

aftermarket Britax crap.

 OK this is a `78 pan but hey, its completly restored!

 Beam is adjustable, dropped spindles are in and 

the disc brake conversation is brand new.

Hope to find time to finish this project soon.

5th annyversary

On 26th of May 2006, Pepitant and me 

where founding aircooled-nation.com .

The Idea was a local free comunity 

of aircooled-minded cracks.

Cheri poped up and as one of many other results

our website and blog where launched in March 2007.

We´ve had a lot of fun, fine projects and all of us

found a lot of new friends.

Worldwide.

Thanx for that!

In autum 2008 other things became important and

the Landlord´s decision to quit the rental-contract of 

our home as X-mas gift was also not very helpful.

In 2010 we ( Pepitant, Cheri and me) canceled the club

because no one of us have had the power to 

reanimate a patient witch was dead over a year.

Today, 5 years where gone after founding, aircooled-naion.com 

is still alive, as a portal for Type4 fans.

I wish Daniel, who is the new owner of aircooled-nation.com,

all the best for his phorum.

One of our best year was 2007.

You find a picture-Video down here.

May the spirit of the old brigade never fade out!

 CU guy´s!

The roof, the roof...

Today I was a little unmotivated to work on my Bug and 

after I found a roll of black highglossy Oracal-Vinyl at my

stuff, the Beemer gets a black wrapped roof.

Im not sure if I want to keep the look.

What do you think?
