Re: Still playing with notchbacks
Makin progress... you have far more patience than I.
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.

"As I can" is looking pretty good. Keep it going and don't "pause" too much.

Re: Still playing with notchbacks
Hope you kept track of the pretty color mix. I bought a former show car for my son when he was 16 ('73 Super Beetle) and after a minor fender bender we discovered all of the paint colors were custom mixed and thus too expensive to duplicate. The car became tan

Re: Still playing with notchbacks
I was going to repair this hood and swap, but the structure is full of holes, crunchy and not sound. So... i will cut the louvers out and move them to the current hood.
