Title: It Runs!
Post by: Matt on March 25, 2005, 10:43:11 PM

So after we put a new battery in and primed the carb, the 67 fired right up and Jen and I were drivin up and down the road tonite. A little hairy as it was 7:30 ish, dark out, and here we are rippin around the bordertown we live in with no fenders or lights!!

brought it back into the garage and gave it a quick oil change/ tune-up. Monday is the front end work, and maybe even slap the fenders on!!

There's just something about a lowered bug and a roofrack......  Looks awesome, even without the fenders!!  Paint plans??

Mount some buggy lights, lose the rear fenders and running boards and call it done!  B)

I'm just gonna make it road worthy again, quick color on the fenders, and drive it. When we finish the notch, the 67 will become the project.

Hey Matt, I have found a 67 rear apron locally. Good deal too. Also, I have some  correct 67 only Hella HB 12 headlight rings avail. They are also correct for many T3's.

I'm interested in the both the apron and the headlight rings. What kind of shape is they in?
