    More NOS

     

    Thanks again to Modder, the crazy dude withe the crazy plans, I was able to lay my hands on a NOS-parts for the GAS-bus.
    One of the quarterwindows must have been broken in the past and the glas was replaced with a plexiglass insert. Not quite original in my opinion. Sadly these items are a little hard to find because they were only a standard fitment on Deluxes.So now thanks to Modder I can fit a nice original one.
    Another piece I'm trying to locate are the vents in the sliding door and the left side in the rear. The one in the sliding door alos has plexiglass fitted and the left one is broken on the spindle, so if anyone happens to have a pair laying around you could help me a lot with selling them to me.

    Update on GAS-bus

     

    In between some jobs, I've had some thing now and then to work on my to-be daily 69 deluxe driver t2a.
    All the brakes are replaced and bleed so I have some good stopping power.
    The terrible gearshifting is also sorted out and the Deluxe goes thru the gears without a problem.
    The front interior had a clean. Some new kick-panels have been placed and recieved some speakers to make long trips more enjoyable.

    I also managed to locate the missing missle seats, the color isn't as the rest (black) but at least I can take 7 passengers along. Thanks to Steven aka Modder for bringing over the seat from France while returning from Italy.
    Something else I've been doing is tear a good used steeringbox apart and give it a good clean and some new paint. This one will be fitted inthe near future so I'll get rid of that anoying noise when turning.
    Another jobs that need to be done before getting it registered is sorting out some electrical issues.
    Other plans for the GAS-bus is lowered it some 15cm, give it some Turtle designed signwriting, pepp up the engine so I have to ditch the single portheads and replace them with some dualports and give it some better breathing...
    Watch this space for more info on the engine upgrade...

    Low

     

    Found this picture of a very nice Notch somewhere on the www. It's a little too much on the low side for mee but those Gasburners suit the brown (seasand?) oh so well.
    Maybe some day, my Type 3 will get it's OG color back...

    It's never to early...

     

    I think, DVF is defenitly in the running for fasting growing VW-club in the circuit.
    With the ever increasing population inside DVF, I think it's my duty to warn the new parents to be carefull when you give your newborn son a toy.

    Watch the movie and see what happens when moms give their bobyboys dolls...

    Back in town...

     

    So it's been a while since I've posted something due to a lack of time caused by my little boy and a lot of work down in the workshop but I'm back. The picture I'm posting is one from the only big VW-shows I've been to this season, namely the European Bug-In. So guess I've been at the best of the season.
    So you all back very soon...
