There's a thread on here about VWs owned by members.
You should post a pic and say hi.

Do a search for posts by me and you can find it. It's kind of old but you can wake it up.

Now, back to this thread and waiting for updates...

*project 67 sub* · 01-11-2011, 12:24 AM

es67chevy · 01-13-2011, 03:22 PM

Hahaha. I see them stopping again just to get even for that comment. Hahaha. I definitely understand the insurance work before custom.

Looking forward to more updates. Stay warm! Too cold in my garage to get motivated to work on mine again the next day or so.

**67cheby** · 01-18-2011, 06:40 PM

Here's a little progress i am pretty pumped about

watahyahknow · 01-18-2011, 06:45 PM

smbrouss70 · 01-18-2011, 06:49 PM

Nice! Has the missing wheel issue been resolved?

**67cheby** · 01-18-2011, 07:05 PM

i hope we dont see another set of them , they are supposed to be one-off wheels, and yes the other wheel has finally showed up Budnik actually has the back two rims polishing them now

going to look great!!!...and yes, shouldn't be another set out there. I looked when I was first going to buy them and didn't see any and budnik has a 5 lug version of these but not in 6

**67cheby** · 01-18-2011, 07:29 PM

c10seconds · 01-18-2011, 08:36 PM

I think the panels are a really good idea and will fit in well with the look of your engine compartment. I've been looking at the same area on my truck and while I won't have panels to hide it all, I think just hiding stuff on the backside of the radiator support will keep it out of sight for most people.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, you're just taking it another step further by going through the trouble to fab the panels. And there's nothing wrong with that!

es67chevy · 01-19-2011, 11:08 AM

Great, idea Mike. Congrats on the progress.

**67cheby** · 01-19-2011, 11:54 AM

thanks for the input, i values everyones input good or bad !! i just want to hide as much as possible as far as wiring and the back of the headlights, guess this week i will get some metal and make a real one and then see what i think for sure... anyone else have any input , any certian ways i can change it to make it look better or just go with what i got ??

I think it would be pretty slick if you curved the panel and the triangle core support to fender brace... if that makes sense.

thats a really good idea, im gonna mess with that a little and see what it looks like

VA72C10 · 01-19-2011, 12:15 PM

I like the idea of the panels. Planning to do a panel between the grille and rad support to hide my rad overflow and train horns

and then another panel inside like you show to smooth that inner part of the radiator support out and have a place to hide wiring and plumbing for the horns, etc...

And I think you need these now that you will be running the budnik's

VA72C10 · 01-19-2011, 12:16 PM

I can even put them behind the rims for a picture before i pack them up if you want

BTW...they're the 13" modular CPP big brakes

babyblueoval · 01-19-2011, 12:19 PM

DO IT!! DO IT!!

**67cheby** · 01-19-2011, 12:27 PM

how much...crap then i would have to buy the modular spindles again... i had them once and sold them since i was doing the dropmember , you dont have the spindles also do you ??
