if it was a 2000 we would be talking.
sometimes i wish i would have found a pre 72 bus just because the parts are so much cheaper and easier to find. I really like the early bay westy interior too. simple. But with a little effort and hunting i should be able to get a 2.0 going.

Oooo very cool. I'm honored, and I think black would be a nice color to try out. Of course straight brushed would also be nice as well... 8-)

Thanks guys. I pretty excited to get the 16v caddy build going. Going to work hard to get this running ASAP. Going to butte to try to drag home a parts car with Benno. hopefully i can find something.
I went to back big pauls and tried to accomplish DA BOMB, ya no. Crazy tons of food, and basically passed out after 3/4 of it.

Got the caddy loaded up.

Got the topper off and seats out. Found a nice little puddle!

Scored these in this deal.

This part sucks.

Got the carpet out and a initial cleaning, wow its bad.

Happy with the shape on the engine bay.

The plan...
