Cool

The stock boxes are pretty bullet proof anyway,I hear people breakin CVs more than blowing up boxes,I think you are gonna have one very solid bug when you are finished the G box mount is a work of art,as is the rest of the car.

Thanks guys.

Today assambled the pedals.




Also mounted the springplates. Now have to think of something so I can lift them up to the fixing point. Is this position any good for aan low bug??


Also mounted the two outer bearings in the IRS-arms and started with building up the brakes.

Damn that's nice

If it's low you wont need any thing to push it up

Set it, finish the car and then do it again.. it's almost impossible to get it correct the first time around

I really like what you are doing with this car so far , and I like how you have gone with an orange colour as compared to the black almost everyone goes for . Keep up the good work, and keep posting more pics!

Wow Wiebrand!!!
As always your work is TOP NOTCH!!!:agree:
You could eat off of that thing! If that were mine I'd have to put floor mats on the outside and make people wipe their feet before they get in!
You never disappoint! Keep us updated!

So after an "vacation" (worked 40-45 hours a week) and after some time spend in France I got going on the car again monday and yesterday.

It's now on his own (rear)tires.


And so is how the pedals, handbrake, etc. looks like.

Now the welding on the body can go further (yesssssssss still more to weld :twisted: ) and finally bodywork can begin.
