Looks very VERY cool. :kewl pics: I can't wait to get some work. All the new thing I want for my car will cost me a bit. And now I want a Beetle body.

I wanted to be different, so I decided to go with green. The front area is inlayed with gumetal.

Looks mean. Did you have to modify your car for mounting the body? I see you have two mounts at the front of the car and angled ones on the back.
:off topic: I also see that your work bench is as tidy as mine.:scared: Now where did I put that screw?:confused:

Ya, I like the way it sits up a bit, it is going to be run soon!
I ordered the front body mounts that same time as the body. The rear mounted right up same as the TB2 body.

Great job on the paint, it came out very nice. I think the Beetle body is my favorite.

Remember to shoot some video it you get to take the TBII out this weekend. I want to see how that pipe performs and we all know that Beetle body will make it perform even better.:punk:
