Well they didn't land the ufo but it sure was nice of them to warm us up for the day

Well we finally got a great day here in Washington. The aliens where friendly and let us enjoy the day. I had promised to post completed photos. Here are a few. I do have a side note don't let the shift cable come to rest to close to the exhaust. The shifter worked great until it didn't...

Sadly I can take you to a bone yard that is nothing but diesel vw. They did not destroy them. They keep a crew on that starts each car once per month and they move it to another section of the storage lot. If the car does not start has to be taken by tow truck to a vw dealer fix then hauled...

You are just up the road. If we don't get enough you and I can still meet up for a drive anyway. There are days I like to just point the tires away from home and give em a kick when I get back I will tell you where I have been.

Like i said to me it just adds to the wow factor. I am so glad I did not find a use for that piece of story wood

Well I finally got it back on the road. So many changes so much new stuff and so much fine tuning. Still need to hook up the HP tuner to it and change the tire revs to get the speedo correct again. I also need to figure out the new shifter as front to back is smooth as butter but side to side...

well guys the cars show is out. The gentleman that has put it on for the past few years is out and nobody wants to take up the torch. On the other hand we can still do a meet up and a run if anybody is up for it. I would love to meet up do a run out some long stretch of road.

does it seem to run and shift okay. I am just asking because it is a world I am not used to. Mine likes to go into limp mode if the battery gets low or if I plug any scan tool into the OBD 2 port. Takes a few runs to get it out of limp but have cheated the system by making it think that the...

So while we are on that topic did you figure out the shifting rims and loads for you trans. If so may lean on you when we do this one for reprogramming the TCM

I already have a donor with less than 95000 miles. Wife wants an auto so will be going that direction. I don't want it but it will be hers. I bet I end up doing most of the build though. And I guess that is supposed to hurt my feelings how?

It looking like wife and I may get one of the last V1s at the end of the year my plan is to do the same on that car as well.

Not sure it helps with down force but I know that by running full panel front to rear closing off most any air getting up under the car has improved notably drag. Fuel eco improved by 8 miles to the gallon and it is like I added another 10 horse at 60 and 70 MPH

So i have had a few hours of free time so been slowly putting 188 back together. We have been busy spending a bit more time on details and repainting things. Also been playing with the headlights. Tired of the flat black. Tried to paint them that look like I tried to paint them LOL. So got...

So the old ball end mounts where angle iron. If my memory serves me I have the 1st chassis of second gen of V1 as my lower radiator supports are bolted. I think people like waterdrivers is all welded. I also see fewer holes in the uprights. New on the left old on the right Is all of the...

I have one as that is a needed tool in a wood shop doing epoxy tables and scroll saw pen holders. I just remember it gave me a great starting place and about an hour of playing pretty much had it. Fine tuning and rechecking more fine tuning should be good to go. So far almost have the...

Okay guys I have searched and searched for the front suspension intall vids and I can not locate them even on YouTube. Really all I need is the torque specs and how many turns out to start with on the Rod end joints. There has been tons of water under this bridge since my build and I just...

Well that nasty flu bug ran through the house shut me down for the past couple days but here is some of what I have done. Sadly like every thing things have changed. The Advanti Storm wheels I have changed style. So that means I had to buy all 4 new. Please read this the way it is ment to be...
