I haven't come out here in over a year. I come take a look today and Earl is back posting! Good to see you around again Earl. Now I don't even remember what I came here to look for?
Oh well, my jeep rebuild lost steam all summer as I just had no time to work on it. It will be good when winter hits and I have more time.
Kevin,
I am in Spain now. It is a long way from Grand Junction. I was once part of a Jeep rebuild, that took almost three years. People kept taking it over, and then losing steam. I finished it off with the wiring. It is OK to take a vacation now and then. I took about four years to do my Bug, and then I lost interest in it, after it was finished. Smoothest running Bug I ever drove, too. A perfusionist is driving it around New York state now. The same thing happened with a Karmann Ghia, worst POS money pit I ever owned. Do not, under any circumstances, undertake to rebuild a Karmann Ghia. They are pretty, but self-centered. If you prefer that type, then you deserve what you get.

I really like your write up, very clear and great pictures...
Thanks... someday I'll spruce my rebuild page up even more, but it will do for now.
Earl, you're in Spain? Wow..... good thing I didn't try to look you up when I went through Silverton the other day!
Bill, Spain has all sorts of attractions for us somewhat-past-prime types. Where else in the world can you litterally wade ankle deep in BS running down the street? Or literally throw the Bull?
Seriously, it's a great place to visit. I'd like to go back aga> Hi Earle,
