The yelloVW is 99% ready - PICS
 

hi all, I'm so happy because that was the first night when my bug slept in the garage. It's almost ready, I'm waiting only for the c/f running boards, some other small c/f parts and some carpets. It is a daily driver, powered by a 2.0L Type IV which is stock at the moment. enjoy the pics

OMG! :eek: That's one HOT BUG!

I've been droolin' http://www.viggy.com/forum/icon_smile_tongue_jumbo.gifover it ever since you posted the pics the other day. I would have said something sooner but I just picked my jaw up off my keyboard. I couldn't type with it in the way. ;)

Amazing! Brilliant! I love the seats and those door handles are awesome!!

OK...I'm gonna stop running off at the mouth. I could go on all night about your car but then I would never get anything done!

Very nice car! Cool to see such cars being driven on the street...

I like the stance, how much lowering have you done in the front, any narrowing, tire/rim size?

Cheers Daniel

2" narrowed beam & CB dropped spindles. Torsions on the maximum height at the moment...I can just lower it :D Actually 205/45X16 tyres on 7,5x16 Momo wheels (offset 35) and 20 mm spacers in all corners for better clearance in the inner side

Bogara_ZO, how are you cooling your oil down? From what I see there's no fan cooling the oil cooler. Over time this will have bad results in my opinion. The header sitting next to the cooler doesn't help either. You have a very nice ride, and I'm just trying to help keep it running as good as it looks:) .

this is the real color of it :D

I have to say that I like it!:agree:

:eek: I need to be defibulated!

That color is AMAZING! Im having serious heart palpitations!!!

Very cool. I like!!

thnx! have you bought the GWD yet????

I don't understand?

hey Bogara_ZO where can I order a GWD shifter??

Somewhere in this forum you were asking about the GWD and mentioned that you are planning to buy one. I just wanted to know if you have bought it yet or not? I think it was in Speedy's topic.

@chug: it that topic there is a link of the original producer of theese trans.

cheers: zo

@ chug, yeah it was here in the topic "rebuild pictures"

Shifter? If so, then yes, I did. http://www.fastbug.net/?q=node/109 (though its not actually made by GWD...)

That's it! Very very nice :agree: It makes me crazy...installed yet??? If yes, how is it?? I'm collecting all the experiences about it, on my future wish list it is on the first place ;)

here are some new pics of the car (finally I got my c/f running boards. only the c/f "inserts" in the bumpers are missing, and now I'm fightning for the smaller plate on the back)

Looking very nice! Can you show pics of how the doorhandles work? I have never seen those before.

Jason

The car looks beautiful. I hope your going to paint the inserts on those Momo's to match. I wish I could find a set of those wheels they might work great for my ghia.

thnx. there should be a topic about it in the "interior/electrical" (i made a mistake :mad: ) section called "my new door-handles" or stg like this. there are more pics & infos about them. cheers: zo

thanks for the nice words! well, originally when I bought them 2 years ago I had the same idea. But since the car has been reborn, and got the smoked tail lights, tinted windows, and c/f parts I had changed my mind..

If I find something I really like in 17" or 18" I'll change them. In this case the factory coloured inserts are better.

This is how it would look with yellow inserts:
