Project Mythical Scirocco...

[MK1_F00L]

sorry guys no new pic's the house has taken too much of my time. Have to order a few things and get this thing rolling again, then the fun of test fitting starts

[vdubkid06]

this is going to be one sick ass mk1

[MK1_F00L]

well guys gotten a little more work done. The sectioned part of the motor cycle gas tank was grafted to the filler pipe from the tank. Turned out very nice. Every thing was then blasted and and primed just need to make time to weld it in. Hope I remember to take out the callers next time

Interesting? YES!

Enough to keep us happy? NEVAR!

[northsurveyor]

Always good to see the progress,diggin' the filler cap and can't wait to see the pop out window install......

[sciroccohal]

talk about memories in 1982 I came up with a 14 piece .090" thick reinforcement plate set...for just such problems.

Or course that was before Vortex....so I ended up selling 1.

I haven't seen rust like that since I left VT.

I've got TWO chassis in the back yard that don't require ANY of that shizzle! For sale.

good work dude...and boy I KNOW it's work!

So, sorry if you mentioned it, but what material are you using? And yeah, us dialup users hate everyone, pretty well.

[MK1_F00L]

what materials did you need to know about? I have been using some replacement pannels that I have found over the years and sheet metal that was stock thickness bent and welded to shape.

[JonnyPhenomenon]

this looks exactly like the gas cap on my old kawasaki ninja...

[fastthings]

No, sorry! I meant for windows. I have MkI wing vents ("no-drafts" we used to call them) with the usual detached little lever trhat you can't glue back on. I'd like to replace the glazing with something you can drill so I can use a Cabby (or whatever) latch that needs a hole.

[MK1_F00L]

good eye... It is a bike cap and to fit it I sectioned a gas tank from a bike to make it fit right, I sure like doing things the hard way.

Well I actually took those old wi windows out and put the American non vent windows in. But if you are looking for a glue talk to some auto glass guys I was hooked up with industrial grade stuff to mount everything for my rear windows

[MK1_F00L]

well little more work finally finished the last inner fender, so its all welded and painted with wonderfull Por-15 great stuff.

other than that i had the joy of cleaning up the shop way too much stuff in such a small space.

[Crazy Hungarian]

yeah...progress

[MK1_F00L]

well just a little more progress, we layed down some primer on the drivers side quarter. lots of seam sealer, and the last of the inner fenders has been finished and painted. took out the sun roof to do some finishing work there with welding supports into there final place. enjoy the photos

[LubsDaDubs]

Looks Good

you must be in a heat wave there, your painter looks like he just stepped out of a chinese Nike Factory.......

[Iroczgirl]

Nice!!

[U. A. V.]

Bump...it needs a motor, now!

[MK1_F00L]

haha Very funny Rom, it just might need a motor but dont know who's yet... do you know someone

[U. A. V.]

<--------This guy.

[jesserobertbaker]

i looked up the thread the second you left! looks good man, Which begs the question...if you can weld...why not do your own exhaust? But seriously tho...nice work!
