front beam, spindles, 944 brakes all where taken down south to Old Speed should be ready aboot the middle of December.
Not sure if where going with a 3in or 4in on beam, putting 4.5 Fuchs up front.
Removed bulk head and added one 356 front seat only, looks neat I like it.
Bus at the painters, undecided on color.
Going to build a very stout engine, I wanna go first.

The Lamb is a lot of fun to work on it make me happy.

That looks great just as it is!

How about keeping it "flat silver" and putting something bright and shiny on just the roof?
It's low enough to see it easily.  Grin

My Lamb came with out seat mechanisms, and locating the original ones was fruitless. Did some research on other Italian cars and found that a car called Lancia and Fiat about the same year had very similar ones like the Jarama and those where out their so I quickly purchased what was available on the web, and with some modifications I was able to join my seats together.
Also located a fuse cover from a fiat. As far as my Bus goes January seems promising to have the rest of the body work complete will post some pictures then.
Also located my original tool and jack bag, took them over to my pal and had them re-popped, and started locating some original tools, I posted them on E=Bay with a small mark up.

Made it to a local car show on Sunday, the 58 put several miles since restoration. The 55 was looking good.
Hung out for several hours then split, went home and brought out the 356 and went to the local skate park, wow now that was fun.
