It's been a long time coming, but I actually have an update on my Ghia. Been working off and on for some time.

I decided to paint it up enough to get it drivable.

Front shot.


Fresh "under coat". It's basicly truck bed liner. I think it looks perfect.

Finished water lines. I decided to bite the bullet and use AN fittings. I have -16 AN fittings front to back. Not as big as -20 but I think they're big enough.

Front AN fittings

Rear AN fittings


I have all the AN fittings and braided hose. I just need to weld the top AN fitting on the radiator, and put the hose and fittings together.

The final meeting between the body and chassis!


I had some good help this afternoon. My wife has been helping out the last couple of weekends, she helped paint the bottom of the chassis, bolt the chassis to the body, hold this, hand me that, get burned... ect.
