Lots of beetle updates. Not sure where to begin. I won’t get into the dirty details, but long story short, until this week, I didn’t technically own the bug. A mixup with paper work 5 years ago left the previous owner as the current owner. It has been all sorted out now, and I officially own the car.
Bryan stopped by this week with my new brake line. Hopefully throw that in tomorrow night. (Thanks Bry!) Picked up the new interior early this week. Seats are all recovered with a sexy coating of white goodness. Today, the car came home from the shop with the headliner and windows freshly installed. Looks really good. I’m very impressed overall. It’s not perfect, but I am still very happy. Thanks for all towing me all over the place Paul! Pictures of the seats and install can be found HERE. Also, last week, my new header/exhaust showed up the for bug. Pretty good shape for a used piece. Hopefully it is as loud and menacing as I am hoping it will be 🙂 Worst case scenerio, I’ll just remove the muffler from the header, and throw on baffle free stinger.
Going to be a busy week. Hopefully I can get a lot done in a short period of time, as the car is supposed to go back to Paul next weekend for a 1-2 week stay to get the paint work finished off, and the headlights/running boards mounted. Last stop after that is Dions house to finish the suspension.
And for the none beetle updates 🙂
Momma and Baby are doing well. Getting bigger by the day. We went in for a second, more in depth ultra sound yesturday. After a nerve racking hour waiting for results, everything checked out, and looks ‘perfect’ as the doctor put it. 3 more months or so to go. I’m starting to get impatient. I kept myself busy tonight, painting the babies room 🙂 On the upside, I finally felt the baby kicking !
Only other update is I spoiled myself, and picked up a new Yamaha acoustic guitar. An FG700MS I believe the model is for anyone who may care 🙂 Love the sound of it. My mad skillz are slowly coming back. I can actually ‘play’ and Shannon is able to identify the songs 🙂 It isn’t much, but it IS progress.
