Recently started to order some of the parts that we need to get it rolling, steering and stopping correctly.

Auto craft UK  = corner window seal (to check we can fit the glass ok on the suspect corner), new church key rear engine valance, small rubber parts for foot controls etc, new piece of rear window glass.

VW Jim = his own fabricated under seat locking locker lid, servo kit for brakes, and some brake parts, new improved throttle linkage and parts, locking front hub nuts.

Type 2 detectives = front disk brakes csp, rear wide 5 brake shoes, long rear axles, lowered straight axle kit with adjustable spring plate, master cylinder for brakes, custom length hand brake cables,

 The gearbox is on its way out, first checking out what to do - solution is to replace the current short axle home brew double notched spring plates with a brand new long axle set up from t2d with brand new rear brakes and adjustable spring plates.
 Peka has been busy fabricating and welding in new seat mounts, they look real good
Old spring plate, hubs, axle tubes etc to be replaced  - on there way out now.
 Test fitting the corner window glass, first time we got close, Peka took it out found the troublesome areas and addressed them with the small grinder, next go we got the window in and it looked very nice  - a bit of detergent, and alot of tapping, pushing, and pulling on the string saw it fit in about 15 minutes.
 The front bench seat stays welded in an looking good.
 below the photo shows the double notch in the cut down spring plate - soon to be replaced
And now the rotisserie is built - just need to remove the front beam and gearbox and get it ready to mount - soon be able to spin it over and get working on the under side.
