Hey Tazz.
Thanks for the leed on the Auto elec and thanks for the progress shot you sent this morning.:thumb
I was shocked to see he had already started on her.
Well Her Pop-Outs have arrived and we are more then happy with them, I am so glad i went with getting new ones for her.
Jace ordered her a few new little bits for her this morning to. some new running boards, scratch plates for the door handles, chrome grill for the vent under the back window, new chrome bonnet strip, and volks script badge.
She is comming together just as i hoped she would.
😉 😉 😉 😉 😉 quick update:
i recently got my baby back from the auto electrics, i'm happy she has all her veins back now :bounce :blush 🙄 . we have just purchased her some new bumpers, mirrors, blinker lenses, billet alloy running boards, new volkswagen script badge, chrome dress vent grille, door handle scuff plates and last but least my brand new pop outs👍 she's starting to take place very nicely not sure if she will be getting her new shoes first or her interior done but in any case im extatic 😍 with how she's comming along

🥷 And who the helled parked the Mitsubishi "Prancer" under my house??? 🥷
Wow.. thats looking seriously sweet!
Love the billet running boards... they look so cool!
Looks great - sorry if it has been answered before, but is the suspension staying at that height or will it see a drop in altitude?
Keep it up - bet you can't wait to drive it again.

This is what she looked like before the accident. The front had settled a fair bit from when Jess first got it, But i think we may need to get someone who knows a thing or two to show us how you drop the rear down a spline or 2 Also i think some of that void will fill a little with the new wheels.

If i was closer i could do it for you! I've been told they're the same in the back as a type 3, and thats pretty straightforward.
What wheels are you going to run again??
and what happened to the pic of your dash??

Hey Alan,
yea i cant wait for the day she is on the road again, full speed ahead now. only need her to go to the trimmers and she is pretty much completed. To answer your question she will be lower then usual, she did sag alot before my accident, it's mainly the rear end that is still higher than usual. We plan on putting the lowered struts in when we do the engine transplant, when we go back to newcastle we will be bringing back a fuel injected 1916 to go into her, so we will be updating breaks and suspension. But in the mean time just need to get the rear end just a tad bit more lower.:P
Damn, Jasmine is definately the sexiest L-Bug in Oz!
Gotta love the running boards!

Yeah we thought so to jo. thats why we decided on them instead of paying big $$$$ to modify them for some more modern style mags.

Looks like dad and Jace have been in the shed again today.
I got home to find that they had put my passenger side running board and door on. as well as a few other little odds and ends.
The steering wheel and shifter will be replaced when the interior is finished.

time to slam its arse
show us your gates
Not sure what the go is with the tyres tazz.
still tossing up on them.
as for slamming it. NO WAY.
Make no mistake, She will be lowered. But after it goes back through for its inspection. As far a slamming it down on the deck is concerned, its not an option for us.

but lowering is of course, personal prefence really
