Bugzilla - Mid Engine Madness

[Bugzilla]

Ray - I know what you mean. I work in the auto industry and deal with the same issues everyday. So I expect to have problems along the way. But at the same time, we are going on 7.5 months without pistons. That is more then excessive. If I knew it was going to be this long, I would have just thrown my other engine in so I could be driving the Bug. I guess the good thing about the down time is that I can get all my painting done. It had to happen sometime so why not now while I cant do anything else?

I do have some friends who are car nuts. Well more like Jeep nuts which works for me. 2 of the guys renting rooms from me have Jeeps and love working on them. So I always have some help if needed. And when we dont feel like working, we just take the Jeeps out to one of the local trails. Its a nice little get away to get your mind off things (like waiting 7.5 months for pistons!!!). Cheers!

And I got one fender painted and hung. 3 more fenders to go! Then a door and a hood and I am done. Going to try to get most of it painted this weekend since the weather should be nice. Starting to look like a new Bug!
