Hey guys its been a while since my last update on the bug so I thought I would share what I have done so far when I was bored... I got the clutch pedal shaft replaced, picked up a sunroof (finally), and I also got my beam and spindles in from KCW last friday. Well last night I was bored so I installed the beam and drop spindles in last night by myself. It to about 5hours total from start to finish.( note to self: do not build the beam then install it) :furious: :furious: Here are a couple of pics of what she looked like.
