Chassis work (2005)
Start of real work in 2005...
New floor pan fabricated and installed, floor was cut right out to just the tunnel. The front end was almost busted off so this shows the front end now properly attached. And most of the new brake parts are also installed, just waiting on parts to finish that work.
Same engine that is in the before pictures but now it's painted, but dusty.
Toyota Celica seats on their mounts I used these for 2005 and the beginning of 2006 but they made you sit over the windshield and didn't help make you feel safe in the car. They later got replaced.
All New brake parts, I later had to go back in and replace all the used spring clips that I used after one broke.
All new steering parts too, later I replaced the ball joints and connecting rods.
Too bad, but this shifter broke and I had to replace it with a new one. This was one of the last original pieces of the Canadian Standard parts from the original doner car.
It's just dusty.
Finished rolling chassis...
Original VW rim, widened to 10”
