Here is a picture of the progress. I was able to get the tin finished up and get the carbs on. I spent most of the evening rebuilding a friends carb and tuning up his car. I am going to try and get my windows installed today if I can find some help. The car is moving along pretty well.

How is the front setup? Are you running drop spindles? Did you relocate the bottom shock mount to get vertical travel? Are you still running a steering damper? Here's a couple of pics of mine. It still needs a lot of tuning.

I have installed the windows in my bug, got the carpet in and got to finally drive the dang thing. I still have a couple of bugs to work out but should be driving it soon. Here is a picture before the windows were installed.
