Gerson, it's Rob. Just wondering what the status of the fuel separation panels was? You got the ones from Jason right? Stoked to see those. A lot of DC and SC people out there that will be happy to see those.

"Funky Truck" can use a pair of those early tank separation panels too! It won't be a long video to install.

Oh yes!

I will definitely get all new panels for my next project,
Current is done with diy method and it takes sooo much more time to make repair parts yourself.. those few parts that i had purchased made the repairs so much easier..

Hi Gerson,
Do you make the hinge carrier to hang the treasure chest door from, it would be for a 57 Euro RHD pickup?? With treasure chest on LHS.
Cant see it on any site who stock Funky Green panels.

Eric.

Gerson

looking forward to seeing these parts in person

we all owe you a 6 pack for taking the challenge / raising the bar/ and taking the brunt of the risk to do these new parts w/o knowing if youll break even.

keep pushing the bar - just dont retire before i get the metal Ive bought from you and the stuff I still need into the double cab

Ill bring a 6-pack pack to BulliBrigade for you / crew to start off the thank you from a North Florida crew cab driver


BTW are you doing gas tank panels - or are they not cost effective

Cast Iron? I thought most of the VW suspension pieces were forged steel, not cast iron. Of course, it wouldn't matter for the end castings. But, I think high carbon forged steel would be a better choice for the center section. Unless they indeed were originally made of cast iron.

Dropped forged is not cast iron. I'm only asking if they are: they looked dropped forged.
