My thing now that I have access to a nice and reliable printer is that any time I see something cool that I want. I wanted a cleaning pot for the ole airbrush so I looked online for a file, and sure enough I found one. The unfortunate thing about it is that the threads are not a standard size so I will not be able to use it on a mason jar.

if its too big you can wrap an old inner tube around the threads on the jar, them tighten as normal.

where did you find the bulli bars? I've been hunting for some of them

I got it from Finksgarage on EBay over a year ago.It took a while for him to ship it out.I would love to get another one.I think it’s called a VW”Hurst” front bar or something like that.

Amazing work.

Made a bunch of progress. More or less only to connect steering hoses and it’s more or less done. Had to make a new windshield since the ob one was junk. I stencil painted the 50 on there but in the end it turned out in such a way that at least half of it is free hand 😁 it’s good enough for me. Notice all the plumbing on the axles and around the engine. 
 

this livery is so nice in my opinion. And it actually reminds me of the Police Academy movie where they drive one of those.
