As i have told in my previous post the engine is out, and still it is.
I have finally found some short axles and tubes to replace the longer ones I have now, they need to be cleaned and repaint. It was the idea to change those axles and tubes before getting back on the engine... But i had no clue in what state the gearbox was. After reading about the gearbox and internal parts and what you can change it was clear... The box has to come out!
Well long story short, gearbox is out and all the internals to. I bought a bus 0.82 4Th gear and will replace the beetle 3rd gear for the bus 3rd because of the stronger gear.
Pinionshaft is the first that got cleaned and checked for wear.

Gearbox empty


The bus 3rd and 4Th.

Early update this week!

The inner panel fit about as expected, so I'm trying to replace as little as possible.





The rear floor section edge needed replacing, just like on the passenger side.








Then trim the piece to fit, and weld it in place. I struggled with the TIG for some reason, but in the end, it was welded.









Work continues next week. Have a great weekend!

Well its been a few years! Im bringing this thead back to life since there now exists a radial version of the wide oval. Has anyone had any experience with them?

Sad news. His green sedan certainly was one of my favourite lookers!

Thanks Rob!

Before welding the outer skin behind the driver's door, I took the opportunity to clean it up and apply rust protection primer.







After quite a bit of massaging, I was satisfied with the fit of the outer skin. So, I sanded it down to bare metal and applied weld-through primer on the inside.





Then, it was time to start tack welding with the TIG.






Once sanded, it looked pretty decent.





The next step is to continue with the inner fender.





It should, of course, match the passenger side. However, this was all I had time for this weekend.
