You know I was studying the photograph and I noticed that it looked as if there is one yellow and one white fog light and then it HIT me!!I think I am going to paint the rims on one side green and the silver/grey on the other!! Because I am torn and then I can judge for myself and see what others reaction would be.Hmmmmm

I think I will repaint silver and get the half moon’s from MG Magic to start. I think that with the chrome beauty rings it may be too much shine to draw your attention away form the chrome on the car body its self.

I ended up inquiring to the local AutoZone if there were any aircooled guys around and they gave me the name and phone number of a guy who had one laying around in the weeds. Who gladly parted with it for $50 and he threw in an oil change gasket/washer kit!!!

gkesseru!!That is EXACTLY what I would have had to do. You know exactly what my problems were! Those are the top 3 of my negatives of the Fiber Fab that I sat in. I was also interested in the FiberFab that had been listed in the classified section and was expecting to make those mods. I see the ad is gone. Anyone know where or who it went to?…[Read more]

Paul, Page 5 of Part 4 says “(note: See steering wheel assembly instruction in the steering wheel box)I don’t see those instructions available for download on the site. Do the instruction include a packing list or item description to give specifications on the shoulder bolts? I only have one and took it in to get two more form a “bolt” supply…[Read more]

Thanks Kent!!I was a little disappointed when I came across low hp VW applications that you gave me the heads up. But then I stopped in the auto parts store and a had a sand rail guy offer to swap me out for a 009. Parts guy gave me a look so I passed, after he left I was surprised to find out they also used it in the 1964 Porsche 356c! 😮 Same…[Read more]

Ok, how do I seperate the top from the top edge of the windscreen to be able to fold down the top? Looks like some sort of wedge/bar.

By the way. Sailor has a NICE Fiber Fab and it is for sale. But when I told him how much some of the ones are list for on this site and what some on Funnybug sold for I think he was near shock. We were discussing it again in front of his wife, I think she thought I was lying. She questioned if I was serious that there were TD’s listed for $3k…[Read more]

Well, I spent two hours out a Sailor’s tonight checking out his Fiber Fab with 2.3 Pinto donor. I admit it TD’s are not for me!! Tonight was the first time that I ever sat in one. Remember, I am looking for this car for my wife and daughter. 1) How much more leg room does VW verses Ford offer? Yeah, I couldn’t push the clutch in. I am 6’2″…[Read more]
