Hello Jimbo, Been inactive since knee surgery has kept me sidelined, but hoping to be able to go out to the garage soon. Car is back from Cooker's and looks killer ! They did a " patina " paint scheme in Afrika Korps colors including scrapes, bruises, greasy hand prints and lots of desert dirt, including two .303 bullet holes in the deck lid ! The body is complete except for wiring, dash board pods, sunroof and windows, etc. Seats and interior panels are done but not installed. Chassis is ready to go back together awaiting final welding on the tunnel. Still plenty of work, but should be the fun part. How's your project situation, I haven't been on thesamba for some time so I don't know what you've been up to. Will post some photos when the dust settles. Good to hear from you, have a nice holiday weekend, Gene |

You need to get some pictures posted! Knees good or bad. Get one of the kids to snap a few pictures and help you post them up! We all need to see this progress!!!!
Sorry to hear your knee is wacked. I have been semi side lined with a pulled back muscle. Been nursing it along for a few months. It is just, as a plumber, getting under a sink is a twisting type of dance. That aggravates the muscle and I move backwards on the healing scale.
Get better soon! And POST SOME PICTURES! I want to see this paint scheme! Sounds super cool! _________________ Jimbo
There is never enough time to do it right the first time, but all the time necessary the second time!
