First couple of coats of filler went down onto kicks today (sanding between obviously). Have more sanding, glaze filling, high build priming etc before paint is ready to go on though!

Cheers Troy. I might go along to a show or two and see how the car goes. I would not be expecting to do too well compared to some of the systems out there! Hopefully I can get some points on presentation as I have a lot of hours in custom fibreglass work - and more to come!
Received the Watsons Streetworks wiring kit last week, so I can finally start sorting out the electrical system, so I can then finally try out the audio....not to mention start the engine that has been patiently waiting for a long time! |

Did you have any troubles with installing the kit? Looked to be pretty well organised.
I am running through a few ideas at the moment with the fuse panel mounting but I would say there will be fibreglass involved I am just trying to mockup how I will fit the crossovers, distribution block and fuse panel next to the amps under the bonnet and still make it look balanced/symmetrical. Got to finish the kicks first, then move under the bonnet....then finish the sub enclosure....then paint it all! No wonder this project is taking so long, I keep getting sidetracked with new ideas all the time! |

I hear that..
I was going to install a rear seat in my bug but when i was making my templets i layed the amps down & liked the way it looked & scraped my idea for what i got now.. Plus i saved the $200 on the rear seat..lol Say when did you start you project.. the whole resto..? I got my bug Feb/03 didnt realy start on it till Jan this year.. Rested wrist & shoulder to you.. I know that sanding feeling..lol Peace Troy

Well, a couple more layers of filler (with sanding in between) went down after work today - they're starting to look more respectable. Once primer goes on there will be a bit more fine filler to apply - we'll see how it goes. |

Cheers.
Yep I do all the painting - I use a 15cfm compressor (not sure of tank size - seems pretty standard for a 15cfm unit). Single cylinder but next time I'd like a dual cylinder as they recharge lost air faster (important when using airtools for grinding/sanding etc). I used a mid range (AU$280 approx) gravity feed gun - sorry, can't remember brand (maybe ATE but not sure if thats even a brand!). It wasn't a HVLP unit, but it was "high efficiency" which uses a similar principle to minimise overspray and lost paint. Works pretty well: |

It has a single muffler up under the seat with dual outlets below tail light - when I finish the bug and save some $ I'll get some decent pipes made up for it! |
