Title: Air Raid (3) at President Jays
Post by: Baha (Shawn) on November 03, 2013, 12:07:24 pm
Another successful AirRaid!

Jester's entire rear suspension is done and as soon as the front drums arrive, the Super Beetle Convertible will be on it's wheels and headed to Franks for paint

I was working on the master cylinder install
