Title: Thinking Of Selling
Post by: James Buchan on October 24, 2005, 05:28:09 PM
Not sure if I want to but if the right offer came along then hey why not.

Very clean pair of original Italian 48 IDA's.
Currently setup to run on my 1914. Car runs mid 13's once I figure out what to do with it by the end of the night :)

Enlarged float bowls, 3rd progression by Bruce Tweedle.

Trimmed stacks to allow decklid clearance.

CB Hex Race Linkage
Empi "big beef" manifolds - cleaned up - no major porting.
Red Stack Covers
Extra vents, extra set of jets (air's, mains,idles - plus what is in the carbs)
F7 emulsions - in carbs.

I will most likely not even be doing anything next year either, much has happened in the last 4 weeks. If all goes well, move my parents next door, move my sister and family, build a suite for Grandpa, and build a shop by myself with some help,  equals  no time for vw's .  It would be a hope and a prayer if I was able to do anything next year, so you don't have to worry about being beat by a little singleport :D .  Ohya, and 5 chords of fire wood in the spring...I hate burning wet wood that was just chopped 3 weeks ago.

I like the sell the car before he drives it......I laughed so hard....too true....
