I have been very busy at work ..I did get the rebel wire harness and some other goodies..Iran a pull string from front to back . I have to pick up a VW bug light switch, I cannot find the one I had..The 26th I am picking up the roll cage. Hopefully next week I will get the body work done on the inside. . Sorry no real big update.. I'll keep you posted as turn of events happen. _________________ 73' Bug

Wow..cameras do funny things. The red looks so much thicker than the green...almost like 12 or 10 gauge. |
