The everlasting struggle of garage photography...











Justin's back to help hang one of the last body panels to go on.












After a quick wipedown












Passenger mirror is on


















Door is assembled with new screw grommets and belt molding. The glass is just waiting for when the car has power.
















I am getting major goosebumps... Soon she will return to the streets.












I'm going to contact a friend in the industry to hopefully get a new set of rotors and pads front and rear. I'm also going to try to find a good powder coating source to redo the OEM TT calipers in red.








Here the car sits, waiting for extended studs and new brakes. Hubs are cleaned up and will be shot with SEM Trim Black before the new studs go in. This way, the center hole on the Enkei wheels will show a black hub instead of an ugly rusted hub.


The new 12mm hubcentric spacer fits really well, but the stud length will not allow for any lug engagement. Holding the wheel against the spacer/hub by hand, it freely rotates without caliper interference. It has the caliper clearance of a German car (AKA - 1mm or so, super close!)



The front KW's are now adjusted to about 75mm of thread between the bottom of the perch and bottom thread. Pics of that will come after the studs arrive and I can put the car down on it's own wheels again.







Thanks for your time.
