914World.com _ 914World Garage _ This is how to ship a mount bar

Posted by: spare time toys Jan 8 2005, 04:40 PM

I am sending my mount bar up to Ricks so he can mod it. I had a run in with the FedEx guy over the last stuff I shipped. Lets see him bitch about this. Its a 4 inch ID PVC tube and the bar is wrapped in foam rubber. The ends are screwed on covered in duct tape then the FedEx spec mylar tape. Here is a test for all the sharp eyes in the bunch. Whats wrong with the back seat in my Jetta? No prize just seeing if you catch it.

Is the drivers side seat bottom a touch too far forward?

NO and No. You are cold, need to look higher IPB Image

Oh, I see it.. They used italian leather on the headrest, and german leather on the seats!

Seriously though, I'm stumped.

Sumthum wrong with the upper door seal. Either no paint, rust or the rubber is stuck to it. Looks like water drops too.

Ding Ding Ding We have a winner IPB Image I had them off to fold the seats and just stuck them back in. It drives my little girl nuts so I keep them that way.

Fed Ex requires the mylar tape so I put it over the duct tape. Just to mess with them They check every time.

Pam and Lawrence sent us a possible lead for a shop we may be able to use in Des Moine. I'm going to call there on monday. Things are coming together.
