Hopefully mine will look that nice. Have some ideas, as far as body work might need help. ;)

Maybe one day I'll have a car worthy of talking about, hopefully my t34.

I might need Buddy's help.

So I got my T34 in, not to many surprises. I figured as much as the guy talked it up about not having any bondo it was gonna have. It does have but I haven't seen anything to bad. The motor turns and has good brakes. Hopefully this weekend I'll get sometime to try to start it. The battery is new,but dead. I guess the transport company tried to turn on the car and couldn't do it.

Several questions though. Where do I find the number on the motor? Where can I find interior pictures of this year? Finally I don't believe this steering wheel is correct for this year. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I'll post more pics later

Motor number will be on top of the motor, between case bolt galleys, and probably on the right case half as you look at the motor. Basically, in the middle where the case half's meet. It probably starts with a "U".

that looks alot like an early baywindow steering wheel, but it probably isn't because they're huge in diameter.
