Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
sort of an update i guess......
YES or NO on the yakima roof racks? i actually kinda like the way they look on it, especially when aired out. and they kinda go with the look of it. also need to make longer cross bars if i put them on as they are at minimum 5" to short. |

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
im gonna say no to the roof rack too..maybe the stock roof racks would be nice. the ones that mount on top of the roof, that one looks like it mounts on the side.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
What type of roof racks are they? I'm looking for something similar to throw a couple of fishing Kayaks on. I agree a stock roof rack would look great, but not practical for what I need too. A rail mount that can be removed is just the ticket!

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
they are drip rail mount yakima racks, we don't have the keys and stuff for them, and if i end up using them like i want to do, i will need to make or buy longer cross bars for them as these do not spread wide enough apart with the ones in their now

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

They look nice but I think you may benefit as I did from putting them up on the top of the jam. Gives that gangster low profile look, and then you can fill all those holes.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
thanks, i may still get new mirrors for it later though, probably the sport style mirrors that are correct for this body style, but these were cheap enough so i will run them for a while
![]() yah i like the smooth look as well but i also like to be able to see better, and i don't want to have to worry about getting pulled over by the popo for it, cause then they will probably give me tickets for other things as well ![]() seat belts..... what are those??? jk jk lol. i haven't had seatbelts in this thing since i have owned it, (neither does my daily driver 70 beetle) i will most likely be putting some in though, but it will just be some retractable lap belts when i do Last edited by project 67 sub; 06-28-2011 at 10:45 AM. |

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
thanks Rick, my fab skill are way far from the best, but i try lol. they would be alot better if i had a good welder. but this pos harbor freight flux core welder that i use halfway gets me by for some light non structural stuff. it sucks horribly bad for body work though, so i will not use it for that if i don't have to, which i don't, because i haven't done any patch panel replacement, and wont, till i can afford a good mig welder for that.
