Did this come out of Montrose?   A guy stopped by the other day and asked about a VW shop around here because he had just bought his wife a blue super beetle convertible….Seemed like a cool guy

Yeah, the fuel injected 78 is from Montrose. They had their Toyota mechanic working on it, but he would never get it in the shop.

How is the red convertible with the 2276cc coming along?

HAHA yeah that’s him.  the second he said the shop he had it at I started laughing and told him to get it to you guys as fast as he could before his mechanic fucked it all up.  looks to be in fairly good shape.

 

I still like this thread the best.

Well the super clean Porsche 912 powered baywindow returned unfortunately. He never made it back home before his generator bearings took a crap. The owner located what was thought to be the correct replacement generator off pelican parts and turned out to be a large diameter 12v generator. The bus has a small diameter 12v generator. So I pulled it and decited since we where in kinda a pinch, I’d just rebuild it and throw in some new bearings. Took most the day to get this done as things where good and rusted together.  I got it back together last night, I just gotta get a new generator pulley.

Looking good Weston. Brap! Going to feel like a drag car with a 4.37 ring and pinion.

Fixing a cracked fuel tank for my chopper buddy Charlie. I was able to Tig the cracks real nice. Then put a 1”x 1” patch over the top to prevent it from breaking again. I am a believer in JB weld, on a project like this I like to cover the welds for extra insurance.
