Well, glad he is finally here!

Now, if Jan needs an automotive project, and is willing to pay for gas
both ways, as well as the car(s), Scott and I might be convinced to
deliver one or two Beetles to him. If Kidd will allow...

Glad to have you on this side of the Pond, Jan. Surely it won't take
you too long to get Kidd whipped into shape?!:~)

Now why you starting trouble??

Remco, I have to agree with you...by the way have you starting to paint
your beetle's pan? The temperature here is about 37ºC so you wouldn't
have those types of issues :-)
This is getting to hot to work.

Yup - the pan is shaping up! Since the spring weather was unseasonably
cold I had to wait a little while to get the paint on. Of course, other
projects have come up around the house that, according to my wife,
_better_ be done first... err..... take first priority.

I've slowly moved on to the body now. In stripping some of the suspect
areas, I found that the PO bondo'd over a small hole right under the
rear vent so am debating how to cut it out and replace the steel. I
suspect it must have been a small hole, but the bondo trapped the
moisture and the hole is larger now. It is exactly where that fold in
the body is, near my rear fender. I don't need to replace a large chunk
(maybe 4.5x4.5 cm) but it is shaped strangely - curved and bent - so
fabricating a replacement panel will be interesting. I've made a poor
man's English wheel out of some casters and lumber that I will put to
the acid test..

Right now it is a nice 27ºC - perfect for working. Of course, I am now
also replacing my back fence, then have to replace my back porch and my
wife want me to build a wood deck out back (it is that priority thing I
mentioned before

Nice to know, that things are moving.

I also have the same issues. All my wife issues have priority 1 (very
urgent) even if I'm under the car holding the engine LOL.
Of course Jan doesn't have this kind of issues...

........So easy to say.

Right?! Too easy to say, but if I did that I'll have to sleep with one
eye open for the rest of my life
