Thanks Tero... wonder how much it will cost to post 10 of them to Norway? Or maybe someone here on The Lounge lives near the shop?

I could order some more and post them to you.  Let me know.

a good tool to make good work  Grin

(I don't know you, but I'm a real tools freaks  Roll Eyes )



I too am a tool pervert - that is a COOL piece of kit  Grin

I's so nice to always work with the right tools. You can do some thing with ease.

I just got a copy of "VW World" magazine, which was a publication of the Northwest VW Association (not to be confused with the Northwest VW Club, still active after 40 years).  Found it on the Samba, I used to have a copy of it.  Really took me back, as it was published in the summer of 1991, back when the VW fever was at an all time high for me... man, them's were the days!

Some things forthcoming in the mail include a set of 90.5 jugs and slugs (only 12,000 miles on them) found on Craigslist for $60 as well as a 40 IDF Weber (Made in Spain) for $75... I'm going to piece me together a set of 40's, bit by bit, maybe use for trading stock down the line if I don't actually run them...Grin

I'm putting together a mild sweep the floor 1776 to keep my '70 mobile as I get closer to tearing into my current 1776 to go bigger...

it has!  but sometimes you need to pick up the odd thing.  How often do you see an EMPI  horn push for a VDM wheel, most of the time they are the coach type.  I have a few mags on there way and then that will be it for Christmas.

Although I did have a pop at this:  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140282515445&ssPageName=ADME:B:BCA:MOTORS:1123
