But the question is Stanely.......did it take an instant or a while to produce those chips?
What did you do on your VW today ???
Stanley I guess the reward is in the doing of it

Fitted up some GoPro's and raced it.
Discovered its slowly turning into a rocket ship.... final run at Mt Cotton was only 2/100'ths behind my best ever, and that's with having to back off for water on the track !!!

Well I made an exhaust setup so I could tuck it up just below the rocker cover, just got to put a tab on it to secure to a strap from the car, then some pot belly paint will do, then it should be good for a blue slip I hope.

Missus has become a little addicted to driving the stocka, but the inconsistent starter was a problem.
Sooo added a relay to it today, Awsome now!

My accelerator cable was a little stiff, so I took it apart, cleaned out the cable tube, and re-assembled it all. It is great now.

Oh, and yesterday I repaired a broken throttle pedal, checked the tyres and took the baja for a blast.
Consequently, today I needed to pressure clean the mud off. 🙂😀

Changed the clutch cable and Bowden tube. 4 hours of "F" factors doing the job solo, but got it done.
Had to adjust the clutch pedal freeplay every couple of weeks. Thought I'd change the cable. Glad I did as the picture shows. This was in the Bowden tube. Compared the old cable to the new. There was about a 5mm difference in length. Cable was obviously stretching ready to break.

Ross came over and installed the 4" narrowed beam. Perfect fit with the shock towers fitting snuggly. The leafs will be ready in a couple days, and we can start assembling this baby. I imagine there wouldnt be too many 4" narrowed beams with needle bearings floating around... hopefully it will be worth all the effort.

Pulled the LH head and barrels to clean foam out from fins, guess I'm still in the honeymoon phase but I'm lovin not having to disconnect a billion sensors, EGR, pipework and 24 + headbolts! Bores are a little bit glazed but plenty of life left, think I dodged a bullet here😵

Generator light came on in the beetle, and I spent 10 minutes taking a set of brushes out of a second hand generator I had, and fitting them to our ride.
All good, running fine. 10 minutes well spent.

Took the oval to my son's footy game and then to pic up a new toy... needless to say, my spokesmodel and his siblings were pretty excited about it all.
