As most of you would know i own a Meyers Towdster which is quite a rare car in Oz and mine is believed to be the only one curently registered in Oz
also.
As most of you would also know i was supposed to of started on it a lot sooner than now but due to work commitments this has added a 2 year delay to
the project but it is now well and truely on the go with the first thing being a new full roll cage which also ties into the front and rear
suspensions.
Any way heres a few shots of the latest progress and i will hope fully record more of the build as we go and keep you all posted.

The rear horn stays to stop them bending down under power , as there,ll be plenty of that now with the big 2387 and they will also eliminate the need
for the engine cage to go all the way foward to the torsion tube.

Another rear cage shot
Sorry about the bad light but if you look hard you can see the tubes over my head from the twin centre hoops to the front hoop bad to be bent so as to
be the right distance from my head to meet cams specs
A front on shot and to the shock of some people yes i have cut out the towd towing bar / steering column as I never used it anyway and it interfers with the pedal cluster
You can see clearer in this shot how the cage now ties in to the front beam and this will reduce the car from twisting when traversing big holes when offroad
Now to some this doesn't look much but was quite a headache to get right , as we have had to cut out the old front body support tube and replace it
in pieces that tie in to the front end supports but still replace the body support at the same time.
At this time my bank account is also looking a little smaller as iv've sent a couple of dollars to Rod Penrose for the engine parts while he's in
the US , just a mear $3500 at this stage.
So is it gunna get more wheel travel and a better driver once it is done ??
hehehe
OUCH ! ! !
Nice puddle of oil you have left there for the animals to die in too!
Top Driving!!!
I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW MY VW'S DONT LEAK OIL unlike yours and Bobs rides
oh so you think i'mm crazy ,well stick your head under my old manx next you see it and as said you will not find a leak as leaks are only due to poor workmanship and ARE NOT a vw fault as thought by many and as it seams yourself included.
SO HOW DID IT GET THERE ?
A GUST OF WIND ?
Maybe he spilt his coke when he crashed?
Crashed?? Looks like normal parking to me......

Last I saw it was tightly packed into the corner of the garage...... But thats probably easier to get to than when it was up on the shelf at Custom Veedub
Oh and it needs to be ready for Fraser in October.......
