Also we got the front end apart and sent it to Griffin's VW machine shop for a full rebuild and addition of adjusters and 2 1/2" drop spindles....

Transmission is disassembled and off to Rancho Transaxles for a Pro-Street build with a 3:88 upgrade, should be ready in about 3 weeks, by then I hope to have the pan painted and ready to reassemble.

Maybe this time around... guess we'll see. As for the saw, I dig that in the picture and told him that this morning. Good stuff, actually. |

Hi Guy's, It's always been a dream of mine to be in DKK since way back when!!!! That would truly be an HONOR to be accepted in and have the Deeks label on my car. As far as the saw goes, how do you think I got the motor off  Bob. |

Hi Scott, No not my style. But Mark (Fred) was gracious enough to sell me his BRM's until I can find the Alloy's, But Centerlines, not a bad idea!!!! |

Don't be hating on the 'lines buddy. On the right wide 5 car they can look pretty good! |

I thought that for a long time, but the last few months I am REALLY on a Centerline thing (no bubble fronts!). Must be the winter...I keep thinking I should find a set and convert my car back to wide-5.  |
