Gearbox....

The car currently has a gearbox with four-stud drums and (too) long rear axels...I found out that the cheapest and easiest way to fix this, was to buy a complete new gearbox....
This 'box turned up not far from home, a '64 box from a beetle - and will fit right in. Sandblasted and primed, it will be a nice piece to restore as well =)

Heater channels

The car's original heater channels are completely rusted away.....so new had to be purchased. New channels at a fair price was sourced at the CSP shop in Germany. Fresh metal always looks good, now it is just a matter of time and patience to weld them in..
