Hi Georg,

Pretty busy lately with the job - and again with the Ghia. It must be ready for the May Cruise Madness - and should be. Right now I am at home because I have glandular fever. That's why I have more time for the lounge... Cheesy

oooh spooky

. . . woke up this morning thinking about stuff for my bug, a new copy of Volksworld greeted me in the letter box and now this post!


so my shopping list


New wheels; Flat-4 BRMs detailed in black or Flat-4 Fuchs (4.5 at the front - detailed black)

CSP front disk conversion with dropped spindles & master cylinder upgrade - wheels determine stud pattern!

(Rear drums with porsche stud pattern if I go with Fuchs - does anyone make these!!!???)

New rear valence with no filler, fasteners, proper fit and a single cut out for my exhaust.

Tilting passenger side seat frame for my Beard Seats for better access to battery and MSD box, and looking to fit a rear seat and some sound proofing!

and finally - a 12v headlight dimmer switch and fuel sender!


Time to ebay all those guitar pedals I don't need!!!

Off to visit my garage and take pics of stuff for ebay now!!


l8rs,
