if anyone knows where to get an interior kit like this, please let me know. i don't know if it's stock or not, but i love it, and would like to redo my new seats in the smame material. got any ideas?
went out and got new batteries for the digital camera, so here are some pictures...it's way up there right now, and will be for a while until i can afford to get a new beam and spindles. the hood is all dented up, so i'm gonna replace it with a black hood, and bang out the dent on the right fender. the ugly-ass wheels will be replaced with black smooties with white wall inserts and chrome hubcaps. i got a new (to me) front bumper that will be put in tmrw during lunch, and i gotta re-do the interior and replace my broken-ass front seats (my seat is so trashed, i can lean almost all the way back into the rear with the seat still upright. makes my back hurt like hell). also found out that the headlights are WAY off, one point down right in front of the car, the other points off the left and up, which would be good if i was still delivering pizzas since it shines on the houses as i pass by. beyond that, it's staying how it is. might do some clean up on the engine, like repaint the tin and make the rest look like new, and i'm also gonna run dual stock 31pict carbs with 36hp oil bath cleaners and custom linkage. enough talk, heres the pics

hell no man, i couldn't wait at all. i've been itching to get some pictures and last night i finally got around to buying batteries for the camera. it kinda sucks cuz i really dont have too many friends into vws, and the two guys who would get a kick out of it already saw it, so i said "fuck it. i'm gonna be a post whore."

no, i'm gonna run dual 34pict 3's with 36hp cleaners. eventually. right now its just got a 31pict with a flippedmanifold riser and apperently a 68 aircleaner. but since you're the 67 expert, expect a thousand pm's a year. or more.
