1965 VW Beetle Restoration: September 2014

http://vwbeetlerestoration.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html

Photo History of Gretchen. Tuesday, 30 September 2014. Back to the pan. So much of my time lately has been absorbed in researching, thinking and planning the next stages of the resto. However, I think it has been necessary. For me to take a back step, reassess the priority areas and unblock some issues that were preventing me progressing. Ultimately I concluded that I needed to refocus my attention on the chassis and crack on with maximum vigor! Orks like a dream:. And here is the view from the underside:.

Photo History of Gretchen. Monday, 27 July 2015. Napoleon fix-up (part 2). Using a strip of gaffer tape and spray paint, I marked up a suitable recess for my fabricated replacement flanges, ensuring that all the pitted metal on the inner side would be removed:. All cut and squared up:. I then finessed them to fit using my bench grinder. Trim, check, trim, check. One side aligned with the help of the trusty jig:. Fully welded and the weld dressed:.

I have finally got myself a second compressor at a bargain price, whoooo! 8230;although I later found that it had a cracked air manifold with a bodged repair, boooo! 8230;thankfully it was very cheap to replace the whole damaged piece. Anyway, after lots of head scratching I linked them up to each other as shown in the photo below:. So, after some playing I devised a. An old 12V pump (the camping type, typically used to...

Started with a few spaced out tack welds and then continued to fill the spaces in-between until it was a solid weld:. Welds ground down and dressed with a q. Uick lick of primer just to keep things fresh. Not bad if I do say so myself:.

The Bug Boys: March 2014

http://noslocars.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 30, 2014. Enjoying the Drive part 9. It's time for another installment of Enjoying the drive. I took this picture as I was driving. This truck was in excellent shape. It looked like they were out driving it to haul something. The paint was immaculate! This is one of my favorite body styles of Chevy trucks. I might be biased because growing up my Dad had a 72 Chevy. I didn't appreciate it back then like I do now. I have never owned a British car before but I have always liked them. Well, tha...

Removing a 5.3 liter out of a Yukon. Saturday we got to work pulling the engine out of the Yukon. We were too busy to capture the whole thing in pictures but here are some of the ones I took. Here Ian is pulling some of the top things off the engine. We decided that it would be much easier to remove the front radiator support so we wouldn't...

Wednesday, June 25, 2014. Not all Air Filters are created equal! The new one has many more pleats then the old one. Almost 2 to 1 more pleats. More pleats = better filter! There really is no comparison. The one on the left is from O'reillys Auto Parts and the one on the right is a Napa gold filter from Napa auto parts. Links to this post. Tuesday, June 24, 2014. Enjoying the Drive Part 12. More at the drags. And yet another one,. I think this was in Washington DC. I could be wrong on that one though.

Friday, July 18, 2014. BOAT = "Bust Out Another Thousand". It's a blown head gasket so I started tearing apart the engine. This boat has very good access to everything. I did some research and it looks like there are a lot of boats that require you to pull the engine to do much of anything to them. This one was not the case luckily. Here is a good shot of the failed head gasket. You can see the #3 cylinder and where the gasket failed. I didn't want to mess up the new gasket trying to heft the 4 ton head ...

The Bug Boys: October 2014

Sunday, October 26, 2014. Changing a Chevy Silverado's 1500 HD wheel bearing/hub. Loosen the nut and remove it along with the washer. This is a 1 time use nut and they are only available at the dealer so if you are going to do this job on a Sunday, make sure you pick up the nut beforehand. Now remove the 2 little retaining rings shown in the picture that are on the studs if yours are still there. Chances are that if your rotor has been changed they are probably not there. Now you can remove the clips tha...

The Bug Boys: May 2014

http://noslocars.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Flagstaff, Arizona back to Utah. (The last day). Well all good things must come to an end. It was time to leave route 66 and head home to Utah. I have to admit I was really excited to see my wife and children. We took off fairly early and made it home by 5 that evening. I found this sign fitting because Flagstaff had some problems with fires while we were there. The whole area was all smoky like this and you could smell it in the air. This bridge goes over Glen Canyon Dam. An old...

Wednesday, July 31, 2013. A groovy night and a little street racing in the mystery machine! Tonight was a real blast. We went to a cruise night that was at the Valley Fair mall. The weather was a little warm but otherwise perfect. In fact Utah set a record for the hottest July on record! Here is Isaac standing in front of his favorite car of the show. This Impala was about the most beautiful car I have ever seen. This one was the one I chose to be my favorite. It was amazing! We talked to the owner and h...

Monday, April 28, 2014. Enjoying the Drive part 10 and a little competition added to it! Spring is really bringing out some cool cars. Here are the latest drivers that have been seen on the road. This one was in Clearfield. I talked to the driver. He was a little old man and he said he drives this car everywhere, everyday. I'm glad that there are others out there like me. I think I will be driving old stuff for the rest of my life. Driving home from work I managed to catch up to and pass this corvette on...

Sunday, August 3, 2014. Enjoying the Drive. Part 13. There are a lot of pictures in this post because its been so long since I have posted. Work has gone absolutely crazy like it always does in the summer. Anyways here are the contenders for part 13. Ellie and I caught this picture on a daddy/daughter date we were on. It was raining on and off at the time. We saw this one in Murray. Ellie loved it because it had pink on it. She loves everything when it's pink. Early in the morning headed to work I came a...
