Strip Tease

 Over the past month Bert has been slowly shedding weight as he gets ready for the new roof!

 

Madison and I have had help from our good mates Nick and Tyler with this one. For me this was the first time removing glass and was quite nerve racking as I didn't want to smash any of the windows.

 

The rubbers were so solid (as you can see in the first image) that nick was able to snap them into sections afterwards. 

My favourite thing about this build is that everything we are working on is totally new and a challenge. 

Now it's time to learn how to tig weld!!!

There was so much to take in when looking around. Each part and car had its own story. The owners are wanting to sell most things as their shelves are almost full. So definitely feel free to contact them if you are ever looking for anything.

Trip to Vw Country!

Two weeks ago now Madison and I made the trip to VW Country where our new roof was waiting for us to take it to its new home.

The drive to Sydney went really well and the trailer we hired didn't even feel like it was there. Personally I was super excited and just couldn't wait to get there and see what was soon to be our new roof!

Once getting to Country VW I thought I had taken a step into heaven!

After being reminded by Madison that we were only here to buy the roof we then sussed everything out and made sure we were making a good deal. Which we definitely were.

With help from Peter we then loaded the new roof on making sure that everything was safely tied down before heading in to see some of his current projects and other parts he has sitting around waiting to complete someone else’s project.
