After all you've done, are you really going to use drum brakes?

If I had the money I was already going for BMW-disks..... (student)

But yeah.. since this things are bolted on.. I can update them later. Maybe this new plates will be on for a couple of months.. but who will say.

SO after four days of party-ing (carnaval in the Netherlands), it was again time today to work on my bug.

And AGAIN brushed clean several things.

Also grinded several weldings and completed the handbrake-bracket.

I´m also a bit disappointed about rear drum-brakes, but these are very easily updated later if you want!

How much you´re going to lower your car? I was thinking if you can move your front control-arms upwards enough if your car is going to be very low? I meen it´s not good having inner end of control-arm lower than the wheel-end of it when car is fully loaded with driver etc...

I think it is good idea to make some reinforcements into 03´s chassis front as it´s usually very rusted and weak... Nice job and patience for this kind of things!

Car is very nice! (altough I don´t like the curved windscreen so much) I´m waiting when we can see it painted...?!
