I recycle old cars and parts, other than when I rot, that's as Green as I am going to get.

Thanks to my Tesla driving neighbors, I feel more relaxed driving my SUBURBAN and old VW's.

Everything sounds good on paper!

Time to update this thread. Even though Ive been side tracked by the 77 bus I have been keeping the T3 happy. Ive added alot of stuff and am at the point where I actualy think it might be to much!

The one thing Ive wanted for a long time was yellow headlight bulbs-Frenchy Style Cool

I know Ive posted the pics but heres a couple anyway.

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.

Ill have to get some gravel guard shots up as they turned out nice. I have also dived into the Bosch duel horn set up. One less NOS pair out there.

Hey, Jason, that would be a nice early Type 3 in the making for that awesome restoration project. It's a good thing you have the time to give her the TLC she deserves. Keep us posted, buddy!

I will be taking care of some small items like this reflector. See the ding on top of the right one. I found its replacement at Bug O Rama years back in the swaps it was at a vendors booth that had this rare early type reflector and my first 64 dizzy score. The dizzy had been in the guys posesion for years with no bite. I walk up and get it for a song-and one condition. Let him know what it is for and what its realy worth. He was kinda bummed hearing (at the time) that Id of paid 200 for it Laughing

Then I realy made his day when I bought a junk (to him ) T3 reflector for early cars only. Cool

Next to that vendor was Neil-Notchback to most of you. First time I met my future T3 brother. AAAWwwww how sweet Rolling Eyes

One item Ive always wanted to "redo" was the mud flaps. I have a spare set of sarge stripe nos ones but feel they are a little played out. So I will be installing the nos front rear gravel guards instead. Here are some shots of the rt flap removal.
