    bugs looking sweet man, I like the rear colour also. I am rather jelly of you running, driving, in one piece volkswagen. Must be on the bumps on the front as well?

    3/4 rear shot is THE best angle to view a bug, and that looks awesome! keep to see it rolling.

    Please to meet you, hope you guess my name!? got both sides all welded up last week, minor/major milestone, still heaps to do! but that's the front firewall and wheelwells both done. detail of the little triangle sticky out bit. and I folded/hammered the fold back over yesterday, pretty pleased with that also.

    Think very carefully about dipping your car, make sure the company know what they are doing and neutralize the acid and can seal ALL the metal including what you can't see. other than that, looks like you're doing this the right way, all the best for the build.

  13. 63Ragtop

    nice work on the fender, good old cardboard cad. the slammed blue sedan you posted looks very cool.

    So the answer to the the above question is... but first I had to fit this little patch to the bottom of the firewall, as after blasting it looked pretty thin. it's only small, but there are four different angles to match up, not as simple as i thought! So I get a PM from a fellow nzveedubnut asking if I'd like to use spotwelder, as he doesn't need his for awhile yet? HELL YES! I'm not really ready yet either so I've been bustin my ass this week. say hello to my little friend! this will speed things up! swapped out the big boys out for these easier to handle electrodes. Still weighs about 12kg! Quite alot to swing around, hold and operate. got this assembled and welded in place last night in about 45mins, saving about 2 weeks time in the process. So I carried on and welded in the firewall patch, if i could magic up some more compressed air to cool the welds I may have worked though the night, so stoked! I'll sleep when I'm dead!!!!!
