 |
|
I picked up a baja kit this weekend, consisting of 4 fenders, hood, front apron and rear spoiler, all made of fiberglass..........
any chance someone out there in Samba land has the original install instructions?
The fanders are pretty straight forward, as is the hood, but i want to make sure i'm doing the rest correctly before i go beyond the point of return LOL

Sorry for digging up an old thread but I had to comment on this.
Hibbard is nearly the single recognized authority on desert racing bajas and his book, while in need of updating to current desert racing tech, is still the "Bible." He is currently serving as the President of the Checkers. |

Sadly, Hib's term as our fearless Checker leader is up.  Elections are next Wed nite, and he's not running again.
But he still will continue to report the straight poop every month, in the Dusty Times Checker column. |
