Looking at the possibilitiy of having most or all of the final assembly of my project completed by somebody other than myself Car is freaking amazing. Thanks for sharing this build with us. Regarding final assembly: have you checked this guy? John Bickel at State of Mind Customs? He's in your area. He built the Max beetle used in the VW ad's that ran last year. www.stateofmindcustoms.com/I just stumbled on his site yesterday. yeah, I've tried to twist Johns arm...he's super backed up (good, right??) I'l prob. over fall / winter be able to do most myself, just might need help w/ fitting ragtop / headliner / door scrapers....I'll get 'er done ;D |

Starting to blow some more dust off the Super...All trans parts have been accumulated and the trans is going together Here's some goodies after getting Cryogenic treated and Mikronite Surface Enhancement. I'll detail full specs on the trans once I get it back in one piece.  Turbo parts to be sent out for ceramic coating ASAP  |

Prob. tow it THAT far, but I'd like to drive as much as possible. As far as "awards" I'd just settle for some "high fives"... ;D
