Thanks. I'm begining to like the car myself. It used to be all blue. All the silver on the panels and springs is new. The pics are not doing it justice, it is silver metallic. I also had all the shocks rebuilt by King. A ton of other small stuff has been done. Front brakes and a cool new oil cooler has been added as well.

I hope I can stop being sick when I drive it. laughing.gif If I can't stomach the car the first few times at the start of the season, I'll have to sell it. plthumbsdown.gif

40 psi...
The dirt rear tires are:33/12.5-15
The front dirt tires are:30/7.0-15
Sand front tires are:6.75-15
Sand rear tires are:14.5-15

Does something look wrong with the size tires? Just wondering why you asked.

I had to buck up on the tires and buy new since no one had them used. I haven't really had any plans to run in desert but they are good rollers I guess. laughing.gif

Speaking of tires...I have some wide five VW wheels and tires for rollers if anyone needs them. Stoker gave them to me with the car.

Tres WOW thanks for my only 'before' pic.

hello.gif to all. I'm taking it to Rick's this morning to hook up the front brakes and install the new oil cooler.

I hope it goes off to Danzio after that for a little 'air' work icon_wink.gif

You have a new pm regarding the wheels for a roller.

Turbo is in the future! I'm waiting for Josh to PM me back, he must be busy. I have the car at Rick's now. He said he could do it no problem, then I could take it to Danzio for tuning afterwards since it is fuel injected with a Haltech computer. Has anyone had experience with Rick and turbos? He said he does them all the time.

Anyway I can't wait to do all these improvements then sell the car icon_wink.gif

Tire sizes look fine, just couldn't get a perspective on the size in the pictures. Certainly look like 33's in the rear.
