[slick]

After a few mishaps the Fastback is finally on the road. I still need to order some chrome strips and some minor things here and there, but it's finally driveable.

Nice ride Slick, I totally dig the front plate on it too!

Sweet lookin' car! What motor does it have in it? I had a '67 Beetle for a little while. They sure are fun. Aircooled rocks!

That is the same kind of VW I had when I turned 16. Great car, too...til the engine blew apart at 70 mph! The oil light blinked ONCE and the engine let go in a pretty spectacular fashion - blew the case apart at the center! It was white with a red interior, had a Blaupunkt AM/FM/SW radio, and ran fantastic. For a few months, anyway!

are those REAL white wall tires?
i remember seeing a discussion about how to make 'em...iceland paint job guy thing.
if you did the paint on thing, please comment on that process, etc.

Sweet. Now you can just enjoy it and spend more time on the Swept.

Engine is a 1776. Whitewalls are portawalls..I did the paint myself in my carport. Not the greatest job. You can see some paint streaks in it and there is some overspray in some areas, but oh well I will live with it

Cool looking vw rod! Is it a german front plate on it?

[slick]

Yup German plate. It's a little beat up because it use to be on my bug and it would drag the ground alot Throwing the fasty on the market to see what happens. Once again I have to much stuff and want to free up cash for other projects
