Congrats to Jose and his 67 4K car.  Sorry I do not know the other owners for 68/9 but congrats to them as well.

I've gotta be honest.  I am very happy; at least at this point, on how the car is coming around..  Is it gonna be a show winner?  Hell no but then again that is not why I decided to proceed with this project the way I have..


Kinda neat to see a side by side comparison from almost a year ago vs today.

Assuming you are referring to 69...

Not impossible but certainly not the "norm".  I do have several early 06A cars with very early May dated transmissions.  Without seeing the stamp or docs its just a guessing game for the most part.

It also doesnt help the fact that at the time I am posting this that there are 970 "guests" on the forum.  IE bots.  This is most likely why you are seeing the "resource limit reached"..  That's just a guess on my part.  Also interesting to see that the "most online ever" was just yesterday at 1246..

Photos 997 - 998 - Test fit of one of the bars. Obviously I do not have it tight or adjusted yet. It was purely mockup and to see how well I will like the bars on the car. At the end of the day I am happy with the look and to be perfectly honest that's all that really matters.

Photo 988 - Found the photo of the traction bars from when I first purchased them. As you can see they needed a little help.


Photos 989 - 990 - As you will notice I did not go with the majorty pick of yellow. Sorry but I like being different. I took Jon Mello's comment over on sYc to heart and I "aged" the bars to hopefully look more the part and style of the car.
