Work is moving right along with a lot of progress being made. Most of the
parts are in but there's lots to be done.

First, a nice beauty shot on the lift with the tires and wheels on. These
are the ones going on this time, I promise! They're only hanging on by a
couple bolts in this picture to get an idea of how much in the way of
spacers need to be added to get everything clear and looking right.

Here's the other side, you can see the disc brakes, front and rear. The
fender wells and complete underbody has been finished up with a rubberized
coating which looks great.

Here's the dash with the gauges in. The plan right now is to add switches
for lights and wipers to the far left side using unmarked billet knobs, and
an emergency flasher from a '66 bug directly beneath the speedometer and
tach. You can see the trunk release to the lower right. I'm sitting in the
passenger seat as it's mounted to check some things, including headroom
which is perfect. You can see the dynamat in the front here too.

Here's a shot showing the dynamat in the rest of the interior. It's in the
doors too.

And, the new motor. It's a 2110cc, approximately 128hp, 114 lb/ft of torque
as dyno'd by the builder, Bernie Bergmann.
