Talked to Bill at Arno's last night, they have their portion of the repairs done. So I'm going to pick it up tonight, and get it back over to Bolton to have the paint work started.
cheers Ed N.

Drove the car from Glen Williams to Bolton last night, seems like it is good to go mechanically. Cosmetically it looks not bad under the hood too, other than that awful aftermarket firewall insulation. Had Bill do a valve adjustment and oil change while it was there to start fresh. I took it over to the body shop here in Bolton that I've had very good work done by previously, he knows that I would really like the car to be ready for next weekend. We'll see how that goes ...
cheers Ed N.

Well, it sounds like I will be sporting a two-tone (green and primer) car this weekend. The prep work is getting done, and the NOS engine lid I got from Brad needs some refinishing on the one side that the dampness got to. The acrylic enamel paint apparently needs quite a bit of time to air-dry properly, so the painter would rather do it next week rather than trying to rush it for the weekend.
I guess a primered Bug is better than none at all anyway.  cheers Ed N.
