My and brother and I picked up this project a couple of months ago, our first VW. Our project isn't near as extensive as some of yours, but a project car nonetheless.

Here is when we brought her home...

Adjustable front beam and rear lowered, as well as an Empi GT Exhaust...

New Kadron carbs will go in soon, along with a cleaned up engine bay...

Thanks for the comments guys! I think next on the list after getting the engine running good is maybe getting some 145's on the front, and maybe taking the wheels to a body shop to get a nice coat of paint on them.

Big thanks to Brian for letting me borrow the engine stand and for the all the miscellaneous parts, and especially for the secondary venturies :idea: ! I owe you big time!
