Nicks Baja Build. - New engine!
The time has come to spend some time on my baja and build the car that I have wanted it to be since i bought it about 8 years ago.
The origional plan was the repair the current body to a solid but not pretty state, throw some new paint on and keep on driving. Since removing the
Baja kit tonight and doing some digging with a screw driver it has become apparent that it will be too big of a task to be worthwhile. There is a lot
of rust in this body! New plan is to find a donor body and do whatever minor rust repairs are on that, switch my gear over and paint.
My floorpan is solid luckily, Engine is great and gearbox was built a couple of years ago. Front end needs new link pin bushings but is already cut
and turned so all in all the pan will get a nice freshen up with some gloss black, new bump stop rubbers, front end will get rebuilt. Already has new
KYB gas shocks all round.
I have invested in a little Mig welder and will be making some changes to the roof rack and bar work.
Roofrack will house 2 7" Spotties, a shovel and the spare wheel.
I will be shortening the rear cage as it is designed for a 4 into 1 exhaust and leaves a hideous departure angle. I will also be adding tabs for
lights as i will not be running VW lights but round mounted lights much like you see on most American style Bajas. My experience with old VW tail
lights and indicators has not been pleasant.
My Saas seats will be recovered in black and red vinyl to match the Leather seats in my 944. I will also be painting the car in Guards red or as close
as I can get. The Fenders and rear scoop will be black, as will the bar work. Wheels will stay Powdercoated white.
The car when I bought it -

This was the car a few years ago when i lived in Caloundra
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Since then i fitted Wide guards and fitted a cut and turned beam and Custom Vee Dub had a gearbox buil;t for me and fitted Long axles. I put on some
wide stockies on the rear with some Federal Mud Terrains and some Standard stockies on the front with All terrains. Also fitted some Saas Bucket seats
and removed the horrible interior and made up some Checkerplate door cards.
The car looked like this

Today I unbolted the tool box from the parcel tray and the rear cage.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I removed all the Body/chassis bolts bar the ones under the fuel tank and the 2 at the rear that bolt through the shock towers. Whats the trick to get
these rear bolts off? I cant fit the socket wrench head in the gap. I tried a swivel extension but that didnt work either. I Could probobly get a box
end wrench on them if it remove the rear wheels but I am a little worried that the force needed to budge them will knock the car off jack stands.

Glass is now out of the body.
I dont have a big enough screw driver to remove the doors, And I am doubtfull ill have much luck with them. Previous owner seems to have rounded off
the heads. Just like everything else is over tightened and stripped Grrrr

Nick,
If the door hinge screws are already knackered, you might want to try welding (with your new Mig  ) a good qual nut onto the bung hinge screws (Inside the nut onto the screws) and rip into the nut with a socket set for
example. If the nut snaps off the philips screw...no real harm done. Better line up some free time as you won't be able to close the doors until they
are done!
If at all possible, get as many out first without welding....
I started with an Impact driver, and when that failed I drilled 'em. I didn't care about the body though!
Usual stuff about welding...heat destroys paint, no bare hands going touchy etc & watch out for getting flashed...
HTH

Hi
Just drill the screws out to 8 mm, works every time.
Are you allowed to use lights on your roof in Qld? In NSW they must be no higher than the headlight centre height, but nobody seems to worry about it
down here.

Lights on the roof are illegal. I will have them hooked to a plug under te dash. If I get pulled over I can then prove they are for offroad use only.
Hence not connected.
Both good ideas for the doors. Thanks guys.
Only thing left on the body now is the hardware in the passenger door. Should be all out by tomorrow night if I have any energy left after work.

Thanks for the kind words chris.
Can you tell me what mods u had to do to fit your body lift?
The tyres are federal 235 muddies I don't remember the model name ATM I'll post it up for you soon. Fronts are 195/85 r15s federal all terrains.
Both have been fantastic tyres.
Stoked to find no rust in the pan at all.

nice stuff
only mod for body lift was repositioning and welding of the steering column conduit tube through the front firewall. Was a pita to access with an
angle grinder, a jig saw worked better but the blade didn't last long. but once the conduit was cut out and a bit of metal below it removed to drop
it down a bit on the firewall, i fitted the whole steering setup together for proper positioning then welded the conduit up, disassembled teh steering
and tidied it up with some fibrefill and paint.
I bought some tube to cut into 2 inch pieces as body spacers for all body bolts apart from the floor halves, and a couple dozen of longer bolts of
course.
Factory wiring loom and stock TMI carpet kit had enough excess/slack to not require any adjustments for the lift kit.
Fairly straight forward, i was lucky enough to purchase the floor channels already prefabbed. Although i had to cut and shut rear channel for the
kombi box gear selector shaft.
Now you got a welder mate you can do anything

I think I will look into the lift kit while I have the body off. How much did you pay for yours if you don't mind me asking chris?
Body is now completely stripped. So if no one comes to pick it up it will go to sims.
Need to borrow a gurney to clean the crud off the pan etc then I'll start rubbing it back for paint.

Last night I gernied and scraped some of the crud off the frame horns and frame head. Unfortunately I got a small amount of water in the tunnel. I'll
have to get some moisture absorbing beads to throw in there.

Well Imageshack doesnt want to work for me today so perhaps pics of progress tomorrow.
Wirewheeled most of the pan halves now. Hav'nt started on the frame head or horns etc yet.
I am waiting for the Fuel guage I want to come back in stock before completing an order from CIP, Urathane bump stops, Guages, Beam supports, Door
mounting hardware, and lots of other small things. Want to get this stuff while the dollar is strong. It will save me a bundle on VDO guages etc.
The carpet kit, rubbers, Lift kit etc will come from VOLLKS or Classic when the time comes.
Going to throw some paint stripper on the new body on Monday, See what sort of hidden nastiness i find. Turns out there is a lot of bondo in the front
Quarters. I am not looking forward to ripping it out. Once I know what I am in for with the body i will finish the pan before I bother with it
again.
Anyone who needs anything from a 67 beetle let me know as I will be using the Body Shell only.
