I just don't know yet. I'm going for the black powder-steelies first. I'm also attached to my 4-lug BRM's since
they were the first set in Europe wich Gunter sold me way back.

Hey Harry what are you using for the holes?A regular drill or a stepdrill?
I am thinking of using a punch that makes 35 mm holes.

I'm messing with  step drills, wish i could punch some parts for looks and STRENGTH.
(But hey it's a street car... But that's a cheap excuse,. Once the KG is done i would
like to raise the bar on the Bug, maybe we can talk someday and you can widen my horizon. One
can have not too many holes and Skulls in it's car Grin)

It must be a bitch to stop the drill from scratching all over the place isn't it?

Just shitty stuff. The fender "holder/skeletons" are thin like paper (damn repro stuff). It was a bitch (bending)
to sand and paint them. The powdercoater didn't want to  blast them.
Apron in first steel bondo.

Paint for all fenders, decklid and apron is perfect. BUT this **** used black primer. Instead of redoing
the whole thing $$$,  i will have 2 decals for the doors made.
