I know right. It's sitting on my bench right now. It had fallen behind a cabinet. I was hoping it was going to die. A week later I moved half my junk to rescue it to regain a little piece in my garage.

Sure, looks like a fun project. I have two VW bugs and I love them. It is a lot of work, but oh so worth it, when you're driving the car down the road, and you realize that you made it possible. Like you said take your time, don't rush. Thanks for the video.
