We have purchased this 72 Low light Single cab to restore and use as a daily driver around town.
My wife, Bronnie, wants to personalise it for her use with a canoe etc, so no alloy chequerplate allowed.
Currently hand painted with hammertone silver.
It appears to have been Niagra Blue so that will be the colour.
It has no motor or box.
I have a T2 auto that I would like to fit to it.
Do they bolt straight in?
Any thoughts or knowledge welcome.
Does anyone have a T2 Auto Shifter complete with cable for sale?
Thanks in advance.

As you probably know Graeme, the autos didnt come in till 73.
However, if you have all the parts I am sure they could be installed with some minor extra repairs.
Looks like a great base though as it appears to have already had the front panel replaced although the front indicators seem to have been lost in the process.
grazza7755 ·
Yes, thank you, it is a good base with no rust that I can see yet.
I will pull out the windscreen and the dash to check though.
Hoping to hear from someone that has converted to auto.
Definitely need the auto shifter and cable from someone somewhere.
It has had a new front recently, hence no blinkers. Wondering whether to put originals or perhaps something in LED in same place.
waltermitty ·
Put some in the bumper.

Looks good Graeme, I bet the Tristar hardly noticed it on the back.
x2 for indicators in the bumper
BrisDubba ·
Good pick up Graeme - I was interested in that myself so am saddened to hear its not some old rusty ute that I missed out on..
Cheers
grazza7755 ·
Pressure cleaned the whole ute. Very tidy underneath with front and rear suspension looking great after 43 years of grease and dirt removed.
grazza7755 ·
Mostly stripped now and pleased to find no rust in the windscreen area
grazza7755 ·
Took the dash out just to make sure there were no rust surprises.
All good there.
grazza7755 ·
About 50 hours of sanding, dozens of sanding papers and probable a case of rum, all the hammer tone paint has been removed.
Door gaps need attention, then will pull the doors off.
grazza7755 ·
The rear tray will now be sanded back. It looks sound but has the markings of 40+years as probably a builder's ute with spilt paint, concrete, glue etc all over it.
Also thinking about changing the rear tail lights to something a bit older looking as these were the first of the tall modern ones and not, in my opinion, in keeping with the older style rounded bumper bars.
adlbeetle66 ·
Nice project! Keep us updated! 👍😏
grazza7755 ·
Decided to change the taillights to something different so first step was to cut out the old molded section.
this will be kept in case I have a guilt conscience in the future and change it back again.
grazza7755 ·
New metal tacked in.
grazza7755 ·
Both mig'ed in and ground back
grazza7755 ·
Now looking for inspiration for what to put there.
i am thinking of smaller round LED lights, either 3 smaller ones on each side or 1x 3-in-one on each side.
Time to shop on Ebay.
wombatventures ·
Looking good Graeme. Can't wait to see the finished product.
nbturbo ·
That's a good score.I was thinking that if I ever got a ute like yours,I would also fit an auto - but would use a shifter from a Type 3 and mount it up between the seats.It's easy to run a cable down from there and go under the vehicle.Better looking and easier to use than the OG Bus shifter mounted on the floor.Food for thought.
grazza7755 ·
Yes, not a bad thought as I was having trouble finding a T2 auto shifter.
VVDS came up with one only yesterday so will go that way.
Also want to use original bucket/bench combination for old skool look.
Spent all day today on it but only one day per week so slow but steady progress.
grazza7755 ·
Rear end starting to take shape now.
Those phillip head screws on the engind lid hinge to the body are tough buggers to get out. Had to heat them with the oxy till they were glowing red hot, then they just came out easily.
grazza7755 ·
Treasure chest screws were same deal, but all out now.
Straightened up the outside and welded a few of the spot welds inside the lid and the etch primed it both sides.
I need the inside and outside lock and handle for this treasure chest door.
Anyone got one?
grazza7755 ·
First proper inspection of the treasure chest, no rust just old paint.
Not looking forward to trying to sand it back.
It may get less attention and more covering perhaps with timber or similar.
Certainly glad not to be welding anything in there.
adlbeetle66 ·
Is that your fuel tank looking a touch holey there ❓
grazza7755 ·
More progress today, doors off and final straightening of the front panel.
grazza7755 ·
Found rust under the drivers seat where water would sit so cut out the offending area.
grazza7755 ·
Folded and rolled a replacement
grazza7755 ·
Welded and ground, now like a bought one again, almost.
grazza7755 ·
Etch primer now going on
grazza7755 ·
I had bought a a complete engine on Ebay that was stated as 'running when it was pulled out'.
I hooked it up on the workshop floor and tried to start it only to find it wouldn't turn over.
This is what it looked like when I pulled the tin ware off.
grazza7755 ·
This is why it wouldn't turn over.
I reported it back through Ebay and to the seller's credit, a refund was made. Lucky me this time.
grazza7755 ·
This engine went to Sydney where after a few dollars, it now looks like this with new heads, pistons and barrels, heater boxes etc.
grazza7755 ·
Now just spent the day sorting and cleaning this pile of metal.
Tinware to be painted.
Then assembled on the block.
Will connect to an autobox and start the conversion from a manual single cab to an auto.
grazza7755 ·
Front floor had been painted in tar. What a bugger of a job to get that crap off. Really pointless going ahead not knowing what it was hiding. Petrol, wire brush, scraper and rags and a few hours did the job. I was far too dirty to even photograph the mess.
I welded up a patch and will paint it all blue again, no tar, which should be banned from car repairs, I think.
Clutch pedal, clutch cable and gear stick now removed for good.
I am yet to work out what is needed to do to fit the Auto shift.
grazza7755 ·
All repairs now done and have just put a coat of etch primer all over it.
Will rub that back this week and give it a coat of 2 pac primer next.
grazza7755 ·
I now have the whole ute in 2 pac primer after countless hours of sanding and chasing small marks.
Pressure pack black has been lightly sprayed all over and the wet and dry rub down will start in a few days.
grazza7755 ·
Doors and lids same treatment
grazza7755 ·
Rear end and tray ready to go
vassy66T1 ·
Great progress!! Well done 👍
adlbeetle66 ·
Great work!
Great step to be up to!
Whats the colour 😉
grazza7755 ·
Yes, thanks for the feedback, always great to have progress on a project.
It makes the process more enjoyable for me.
I always like original colours.
This was and will be Niagra Blue.
But, thinking about a white roof and pillars for that two tone look.
There was a Pastel White in that year that I would use.
yarrum ·
I take it you like original Volkswagen colours but niagra blue isn't an original Australian colour for a 72 kombi
grazza7755 ·
Oh,............. then I may have identified the wrong original colour.
It certainly look close to Niagra Blue and now I have bought the paint.
I should have consulted the 'brains trust' earlier but thought that I had it right.
Oh well, it looks like that it will be an original VW colour, just not the original VW colour, but pretty close to it.
What colour is close that it may have been?
Rub down is underway today with 400 wet and dry.
May be able to start painting door jambs tomorrow.
grazza7755 ·
Beautiful weather so started the painting, all in 2 pac.
The colour is so close to the original under the hoodlining that I am wondering how 2 different colours, if they are different, could be that close.
grazza7755 ·
Doors and hatches all done on the inside.
adlbeetle66 ·
Looks gorgeous mate! 😀
grazza7755 ·
Used the remaining paint in the gun for a light coat on the tray because once the hardener is in the paint, it can't be saved.
The tray will get another full coat.
shaven ·
beautiful work... love the colour
vassy66T1 ·
Awesome !!!
grazza7755 ·
Thanks for the comments, I'm enjoying the journey.
Hoping to paint the roof today. I have 2 heaters going in the shed right now trying to raise the temperature from about 15 to about 20 degrees.
2 pac paint doesn't like cooler temps when going on.
petemart ·
Awesome work!
I personally love lowlight utes and it's good to see one getting some serious love
grazza7755 ·
Ok, got the temp up to 18-20 degrees, so away we go with the top half colour which is Pastel White, a VW colour from that year.
grazza7755 ·
Doors as well getting the top half treatment.
Lots of extra masking doing the two colours so I hope the result is worth it, meaning that I hope the colour combination works.
grazza7755 ·
Got my gas mask on to keep the gremlims out of my lungs. Could be better protected but i don't do much of this so should be OK.
grazza7755 ·
So, whilst waiting for the paint to dry and i get bored easily, decided to start on the instrument cluster tidy up.
Cleaned up the original cluster, painted the silver metal part that holds the glass in, changed the speedo over to a kilometre one with a trip meter from a left hooker, added a clock from a 77 microbus and added some chrome rings that I found online.
grazza7755 ·
End result, a better looking instrument cluster.
Oh, and I gave the odometer a haircut back to 000000, as it was a speedo from overseas and I have no idea what mileage the ute really has and the engine and gearbox are from different other vehicles.
grazza7755 ·
This is the result of today's effort. The white looks quite yellowish in the pics but i think that is from the flouros above.
Hoping to get the blue on next week.
adlbeetle66 ·
Cluster looks fantastic 👍 and i love the colour choice 😁
grazza7755 ·
Another beautiful day on Palmers Island with the temp good for painting so masked up the top white part ready for the blue final coat.
grazza7755 ·
Tray back first then a couple of coats around the body.
grazza7755 ·
End result looks good, off with the masking tomorrow and let the paint cure for a while.
Missus and I off to Europe for a month later this week so no updates for a while and glad to have the paint hardening whilst we are away.
Looking forward to the assembly, hoping to have rego on it by Christmas.
bugmaniaar ·
Looking good......... 👍
vwpizza ·
Great read,love the work and the pics...
grazza7755 ·
Righto, back in action to assemble the ute.
I took the auto down to Sydney last week where the motor was being rebuilt. We connected it all and fired it up. Sounds sweet. Too long a drive to bring it back and find it won't start.
Then the job of cleaning it all out and fish oiling it. What a bastard of a job crawling in the treasure chest trying to spray fish oil everywhere. I certainly won't rust. I sprayed 3 litres in every hole I could find, some of it even stayed with the ute, most runs out on the floor.
grazza7755 ·
Fat mat sound deadening going everywhere
grazza7755 ·
Started here behind the dash, sorting wires, putting wiper motor in whilst it is easy, cutting the few added wires out and generally tidying things up.
Just remembered to pull the ignition out as I didn't get a key with it.
All cables oiled up and working smoothly.
Dash will go in next.
grazza7755 ·
H4 Crystal Xenon headlights with Mega White 60/55w Halogen bulbs now fitted after soldering all the wires behind that had been scotch locked previously.
grazza7755 ·
Stainless screws and bolts for everything that I could think of make the job easier to do and easy on the eye when done.
grazza7755 ·
Coming together quite well now.
While I think of it, I have new Fuch alloys going on it an will not need the existing alloys that have reasonable to good tyres on them.
If someone out there has a good use or knows of someone that could do with them, happy to give them to a good home, but hopefully to someone who needs or deserves them.
Let me know.
Better pics available of previous posts.
grazza7755 ·
Bit more work done today.
Front door rubbers are in, have tried it without gluing except for the area near the checkstraps. Hope they stay in.
The LED taillights are Ebay specials just trying for the older look but with modern efficiency.
grazza7755 ·
The front VW badge was challenging.
Firstly, trying to get the right position as there were no existing holes, so looking at images on google trying to judge the right place.
Secondly, I have bought a stainless steel badge which has 4 threaded studs on the back. After drilling the four holes, I find that the top two are totally inaccessible from inside the cab as they are behind the permanent air ducting.
As the badge is flat and the front is curved, the badge needs to be pulled in to sit flush.
My solution was to bend the top studs upwards, hook them through the top holes and then put nuts on the bottom ones to pull it in. It worked.
grazza7755 ·
More insulation going in.
grazza7755 ·
Starting to carpet over the insulation now.
Using 'boat carpet' which is waterproof and therefore I hope won't hold any moisture.
grazza7755 ·
Also started on the window regulators today.
First, a thorough clean as they are stiff and full of old grease and dirt.
I have bought an after market electric winder kit and going to try reversing the winder part so that it is all hidden inside the door.
grazza7755 ·
The mechanism drill apart OK and even though I thought I had cleaned it well, it was full of hard packed muck.
So, further clean then welded it back together facing inwards. Had to cut spaces out of the other half so they would locate on the winder tube.
Just have to get my head around all the parts in the kit and then see if it will all fit inside the door frame and clear the glass etc.
grazza7755 ·
Spent a bit of time installing the hood lining, isn't that a fun job.
Working upside down by yourself and doing it without knowing which part to do first.
New ones come about 100mm too big all round which further confuses you.
At least I got it up there, albeit with a few waves in it.
I have walked away from it now but will give it a few more hours later and try to stretch it in the right directions.
It'll look alright from 10 feet on a dark night.
1303Steve ·
great work
grazza7755 ·
Thanks Steve, I'm having great fun enjoying the rebuild.
Hope to have plates on it by Christmas.
Still heaps to do.
Graham
grazza7755 ·
Time for these glamours to have a birthday.
I stripped off the covers and glued foam in where the tear was.
grazza7755 ·
Covered top area with a Dunlop foam underlay from Bunnings.
Added the heated seat pad.
grazza7755 ·
Then stretched on the new covers.
It looks a little bit 'full' but will settle down and be quite comfy.
Perezoso ·
Love your work and this thread. I've got a 72 SC waiting to be done and you have given me heaps if ideas.
Thanks
Dan
grazza7755 ·
Thanks Perezoso, good to know that the journey is helpful to others.
Started on the dash now.
Took off the chequer plate addition and welded up all the holes that were not needed.
I bought a blue stitched leather dash cover and spent a few frustrating hours stretching and gluing it on.
End result not too bad.
bugmaniaar ·
Heated seat pad....love it...Should be good for roasting nuts...
grazza7755 ·
Leather covered dash is now all bolted in with all the ducting cleaned and sealed.
Added these 'Ambulance' fans in which to be honest I had never heard of till recently.
One each side in the ducting and 2 speed motors.
Might even give driver and passenger their own control switch.
Should heat up a single cab in record time i think.
grazza7755 ·
Seat heat switches now mounted in the dash under the radio hole.
Wiring and relays for it secured under the dash and marked so i remember what they are all for.
grazza7755 ·
Still got stuff everywhere going on.
Started assembling the doors which is painfully slow to do.
Stupidly, I put the quarter window and moulds on and then realised/remembered that the winder mechanism has to go in first so had to unassemble it and do it again.
grazza7755 ·
Electric window mechanism now in.
As mentioned before, the winder gear box was drilled off, turned around so that the spline faced inwards and then spot welded together again.
This allows all the works to be inside the door out of the way.
Central locking mechanism mounted which also required a lever mechanism to be made and mounted in the door as the activator didn't have enough grunt for the kombi locks.
So a fulcrum leverage thingo did the trick.
grazza7755 ·
Steering column rubbed back and painted with pressure pak.
Mounting it in and getting that damn horn wire at the base of the column connected was yet again another frustrating challenge, but done.
grazza7755 ·
The old front bar was carefully taken apart as the rubbers and alloy moulds are a bit delicate.
A few ding repairs, a coat of paint and reassemble.
Brand new second hand bar.
Still no luck with a rear bar as this ute was a one year model for brackets etc.
Might have to make an alloy rear bar, i think.
grazza7755 ·
I have eight set of two holes around the tray where the tailgate and side gate brackets normally mount.
I don't have these gates and don't intend to ever get them as i like the look of these utes without them.
I made a steel sample of flat plate with a cut of shackle welded to it.
I will get eight of these made in stainless.
These will then make great tie down points for when the missus has her kayak on the back. (This is the original intended purpose of this project)
grazza7755 ·
Went to put the front bar on and found that both driver's side bolts sheared off so up on the hoist, drilled the bolts out, retapped the thread and fitted the bar.
Haven't been able to locate the treasure chest lid lock so I modified the hole a little to take an engine lid lock. This also meant making a bracket for this to latch on to. Works well.
grazza7755 ·
Front mats next to go in.
Of course these need to be cut out where the tracks live.
The markings are on the rubber but they didn't match my ute so measure twice and cut once.
grazza7755 ·
Rear window rubber.
This is what it looked like as i was fitting the rubber to the glass. I immediately thought that had sent the wrong rubber. I rang the supplier and checked numbers. No, right one and was told to 'pull harder'! Not sure what that had to do with it?
Anyway, it is a 2 person job to stretch it over the glass and then to hold it firm whilst pulling the rubber in.
We got it in.
grazza7755 ·
Decided to work underneath for a while for a change of scenery.
Took all the old alloys off.
Checked all the brakes, rears like brand new but front disc pads at 25% so will be replaced. A little bit of suspension detailing, not too extreme as we do have a 1 kilometre long unsealed driveway.
Mostly quite original underneath.
grazza7755 ·
By the way, as mentioned before.
there are 4 of these alloys with legal good tyres on them.
Not wanted by me so FREE to good home.
I don't really want to get involved with freight etc so call in to pick them up.
Ready to go.
Oh, I do like a Bundy.
grazza7755 ·
Mudflaps added after modifying the universal type brackets.
Engine bay minor detail
Then realised that the engine crossbar wasn't on so off with the exhaust and heaterboxes and various tinware. New mounts and back together.
grazza7755 ·
Put the engine and gearbox on a workbench on wheels and slid it under the ute on the hoist. Made it real easy.
Now I could see what had to be done to mount the auto box in the manual vehicle.
I made a simple plate bracket that slots snuggly into the auto rubber mount and then bolts up to the torsion housing. No welding on the ute at all.
The rabbit ear mounts on top of the auto lined up perfectly as well.
grazza7755 ·
This is the end result of an auto into a manual.
Connected the engine and it fired up straight away.
grazza7755 ·
Porsche wheels back from getting tyres so needed to put them on the ute to see what it looked like.
New black full cover wheel nuts from Repco and looks great.
grazza7755 ·
Have spent 2 days on the wiring getting it sorted.
Led tail lights are fantastic.
Pondered where to put the front led lights but finally think that the low light place was the right place.
So, I wired in,
heated seats looms and their switches,
electric window looms and their switches,
central locking looms,
push button start,
new stereo that has the speakers in the radio facia so no other speakers to mount,
clock,
12v accessory socket,
electric washers,
And I don't even like electrics, just realise that it has to be done.
grazza7755 ·
T- bar shifter next.
It actually bolts into the same holes as the manual gear stick.
However, the auto shifter has studs on it and the manual floor has holes with threaded nuts under it.
So the auto shifter studs were drilled out allowing bolts to hold it in nicely.
There is a bracket under the floor for the manual gear rod that has to be cut off as it is in the way.
New floor mat has to be cut around the auto shifter.
New kick panels needed a good haircut on one end before they would fit.
Instrument cluster, glove box and lid now in.
Need to sort out shifter cable and accelerator cable next.
Getting there, one step at a time.
grazza7755 ·
I used an electric fuel pump and made a blanking plate for where the old mechanical pump was. Main use of extra filters was to adapt the two different fuel line hose sizes.
I ordered 'morse' style cables for the auto shift and the accelerator. Some new holes in the rails needed and mounting brackets needed.
Made the job relatively easy for the manual to auto issue.
grazza7755 ·
Finally found a rear bumper just after I started making an alloy one. Not bad for it's age but off a '71 so different brackets.
I will cut and shorten the brackets and re mount them wider on the bar which will then all bolt up.
Using form ply to line the back tray area so after cutting it to size, sanded them and a coat off exterior paint to waterproof them. Stainless dome headed bolts recessed into the timber used to hold them on.
Rolled out the boat carpet to then line the timber.
grazza7755 ·
"grass glue' to hold the carpet on.
End result a good all weather surface that can be hosed clean.
grazza7755 ·
Been a lot of after hours work this week and as we are heading of for a week tomorrow, touring on the Harley, decided to fit the front seats and steering wheel and take it off the hoist.
First time under its own steam since we have had it.
Drove it about 400 metres down our drive to surprise Bronnie at the house. A good feeling after all this time spent on it.
Still needs a windscreen, door trims and rear bar on it but that can be in December after our break.
Bronnie was surprised and delighted.
Perezoso ·
Wow, that looks great and the work you have done is awesome on the build and in this thread.
Thanks
Dan
immonsta ·
Looking fantastic, what a great job. Congratulations! And thanks for the progress pics and commentary, really good.
grazza7755 ·
Thanks guys for the kind words.
I have always enjoyed others people's builds and am now glad that I documented this one even though it is an extra task to always take the time to take a pic and then take the time to upload it with commentary etc.
You always learn something from other builds and it is a great way to share ideas and skills.
Looking forwards to getting some plates on it soon, maybe this year but if not, soon after.
adlbeetle66 ·
Fantastic! Also like your CC in the background!
grazza7755 ·
My 'trouble and strife' has now decided that the blue boat carpet on the tray back clashes with the ute colour.
I kind of agree.
So, charcoal carpet bought today and will replace it all.
grazza7755 ·
As mentioned, I finally found a rear bar in average condition so need to get it up to specs.
The brackets were off a 71 so about 200mm too long and wrong shape.
The fixed nuts on the chassis rails on one side were gone so I drilled out the holes to a nut size, inserted the nuts and welded them in.
Ground back the welds a little and painted.
Good as new.
grazza7755 ·
I have never thought that the rear bars were strong enough so I bought some 8mm x 50mm x 1600mm flat bar.
After straightening the bar best I could I welded this on the inside of the bar slightly curved in the ends.
Should strengthen it really well.
Drilled the bumper hole through and will put longer stainless roundhead bolts to suit.
Now to prime and paint it.
grazza7755 ·
New windscreen was delivered today so a mate and I fitted the rubber, applied the goo and in she went.
A good fit all round, thankfully.
grazza7755 ·
Also chose, as it was Christmas eve, to replace the carpet for my wife to a more suitable or liked colour.
The blue had only been on a few weeks but was a bugger to remove.
Tried a few ways but ended up wrapping the carpet around a length of 50 x 50 box steel and using a large shifter to turn the steel.
This worked.
More carpet cut.
More outdoor synthetic grass glue applied.
More pleasing on the eye result.
The shortened, cut, bent and welded '71 rear brackets were put on ready for the bar.
Getting closer to number plate stage.
vassy66T1 ·
Looking good! Great effort all round
modnrod ·
This ute is cool as. 👍
I love Bays with autos, I had one years ago and it is still my favourite ride.
I also used a hefty shifter cable but hooked up to a B&M (ahem, sorry!), but I found that the first bracket I made started to flex and crack, so keep an eye on your cable bracket mount. 😎
grazza7755 ·
Thanks, glad that you like it.
It's the look I had in mind from the start with a bit of influence from 'Dino's single cab'.
I have mounted the cable pretty securely but will keep a check on it with your experience in mind.
grazza7755 ·
Finally got the rear bar straight and painted.
Couldn't find the rear bar alloy bases anywhere so made up some metal flat bar to sit in the rubber and bolt through the bar.
Worked suitably OK.
grazza7755 ·
End result is an interesting variation of it's actual year model.
Basically, this was the look that I was after from the beginning.
Still looking for a suitable alloy molding to go around the tray edge.
Just temporary steel strapping on there now.
grazza7755 ·
Near to last of the jobs is the door trims.
Used a good thick clear plastic with clear silicone all round.
The trim clip rubbers are a bugger to fit. I used a thin tapered flat ended punch with silicone spray on the rubbers to help. This method worked well.
Holes were needed in the door trim for door pull handles and microbus armrests.
grazza7755 ·
Decided to use alloy door pulls to avoid the inevitable breaking of the plastic ones.
Quick coat of reconditioning black gloss paint for the armrests.
Scottkombi ·
Nice work.
Buying a motor off ebay is a real lottery...
Lucky this turned out OK
grazza7755 ·
A few update pics of finished jobs.
grazza7755 ·
I noticed that there was excessive auto oil every time I started and moved it.
So, after a call to the auto magician, Aaron, it was on the trailer and up to the Gold Coast for a visit to the doctor.
Auto out and a new sleeve on the torque converter and a new seal. Picked it up a week later and all is good.
No oil leaks.
grazza7755 ·
Finally found a molding that would suit.
Ordered 9 metres of it from Ulrich Newcastle, delivered a few days later so on it goes.
This has a provision for a centre plastic mold so will look into that.
grazza7755 ·
Found these great Perspex wind and rain deflectors on line.
They fit in seconds with no clips or tape.
Just tap them up into place.
They work well.
grazza7755 ·
It's like getting to the grand final when the 'blue slip' time comes and you wonder if it is good enough for a result.
Flying colours passed.
Number plate chosen as in VW, year model 1972, wife's initials BL and beach scene for our local Yamba beaches.
Only later realised that the BL could be for Bay Lowlight, so bonus for that.
grazza7755 ·
Well, a few parting pics and then ''that's all folks''.
Thanks for following the journey.
It's nice to know that there are interested people out there.
It was 12 months nearly to the day from buying it on Ebay to getting the number plates on it.
Loved all the hard work and now enjoying cruising around town.
Might let the missus drive it occasionally as it is/was for her.
It drives so well.
Very quiet with all the insulation I put in it.
Now, what's next?

Hey I know it's a year on But great Job. I am also now doing a 72 SC blue with white roof original colors but the reason I was replying was where's the Kayak?....lol well done.
