HOLY COW AN UPDATE!!!!! Yes I am still kinda working on it. Life has
been busy, and money spread thin. Mostly, I am lazy once I get off
of work, and have a few days to my self.
This update is mostly just to catch you up on what few things I have done to
the car.
I have removed the entire lid, and hacked the windshield. I have also
started to
de-skin the inner layer of metal on the rear quarter panels. Notice
I have started relocating the door cage area. It was going to be a bear to
climb in and out of the way it was originally.
Also after looking at these photos, I think I am going to rearrange some of
the bars around the head area. The line just won't look right with the '61
Vert windshield, and aluminum lid that is going to be applied to the car.
I purchased a '61 VW Vert body on E-Bay last winter, and pretty much chopped it
up just for the windshield.
091 on top, 002 on the bottom. The 091 will go into this car, and the
002 is looking for a chance to jump into my Orange
Baja.
My 091 received a complete off road build with new goodies by Mark and MarkSandTrans
(conveniently one my neighbors up the street).
Here is the setup, ready for sand/hills:

I also purchase my Fox Shox from Mark, and will add some pictures when I get
them out of the box someday.
