I actually did about 65% of the wiring for my teetwo yesterday, all of a sudden I'm motivated again LOL. Try to wrap up the wiring and plumb the fpr and it'll be almost ready to run.

played with the racecar yesterday. swapped out the bad brake rotor, someone had installed a brake pad backwards..... put the front bumper lights in.



today i get to hopefully finish the carb rebuild, and then i get to pull the exhaust and trans (2nd and 3rd are bad, one of em even goes away when the car is warmed up!)

I removed a crappy exhaust from another 1st gen yesterday. The good RB setup will go on it, along with a rebuilt 4 port 13B with a Weber IDA.

Fit the interior around the roll bar, rook super stock! Must show photos later.



Steve



P.S. Fitting the interior around the rollbar takes WAAAAAY to ******* long. It looks good, but that turned a 4 hour project into 2 days.
