              Washed and waxed the ghia then did some touch up etc.
               Did all the work needed to get the bus ready for paint.

Continued sanding the roof.Painted the fender...I think I'm done with that except for the clear....know more when it dries.
Took off the door panels so I can get to rebuilding the window guts. Drivers side once had a broken window. How do I know....PO left all the broken glass in the bottom of the door. I suppose it really didn't hurt anything....just laziness on their part  .///

I didn't get to work on the bug yesterday, with the on and off again rain.  I did however fix the hack job on my audi's wiring harness.  Also Power Washed 98k miles of gunk off the engine and engine bay. Now all of the turbo pipes are shiney  :icon_cheers:  My new hybrid turbos should arrive this week!!! Another two weeks and we will start trying to figure out how to put the car back together again...

 Whoa 3-gear, you are doing some work!  Great going especially for this time of year when a lot of people are slowing down!  Keep it up!
