Took delivery of these! Props to Chris at tangerine racing for hooking me up with these. All the rest of my brake and suspension parts are here so I should have a productive weekend!

New 5 lugs on, ready to put the shafts in and next are the calipers and
Brake lines!

Brakes are from PMB of course! Thanks Eric!

Took the 'BB' off the charger and took it out for a quick spin around town. Stopped at a bud's BMW repair shop and shot the shit for a while. Asked him to keep his eyes open for a nice 2002tii for me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Need to run by a local VW parts house to pick up some flywheel shims for the '67 Bug ... I think I'll drive the 914 since the weather is so nice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Pulled the RCI fuel tank to replace with an FIA compliant fuel cell.

Anyone need a 15 gallon plastic fuel tank that looks like a fuel cell?

Cleaned up the door latch mechanism. Before and after only about 3 min of scrubbing with a nylon brush.

Replaced 2 fuses after knocking them out. Got my headlights to work again. Drove and looked like a grinning idiot.

Stopped at a local VW shop and chatted about T-1 stuff with the owner for a while. Found out he knows some of my old VW buds from back in the 70's. Also found out one of my good friends from the 'Bug-In' days died about 15 years ago (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Removed some polished EMPI wheels with 165s from my wife's car (they're in the classifieds) and replaced them with some 5.5" stock steelies. This is a temporary transition, as I loaded up another set of freshly powder-coated wheels and new 195/65 tires to take to my auto shop tomorrow (we have a SNAP-ON tire changing machine and high-speed balancing machine there) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I need to replace a leaking wheel cylinder on the '67 Bug, but I can't bust the damn lug bolts loose - even with PB Blaster and an air-impact gun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Added one of McMark's Master Cylinder braces. Fit like a glove, although in my case did not change the feel of my brakes. I suppose I didn't have much flex to start with.

Put these new pushrod tubes and seals in.

Oh, and so everyone knows, yes you can put in new ones without dropping the engine!
First time and I had the new ones in in 1 hour. Will post a more compete list of pictures on my thread

The engine paneling is finished. As well as all other parts heating pipes u.s.w.
I am waiting now on the new engine which is currently under construction.
The motor in the picture is an old engine and served only to customize the new paneling.
