2x3 .120 wall.

Some exhaust on the VW.

One side almost done, other side is a little more intricate.

A little more tweaking and I can weld the mid pipe to the muffler and cat, and then start on a crossover, or H-pipe.

Here are the latest shots. I am basically done with the exhaust now aside from the H-pipe. I needed to finish each side before I can tie them together with the H-pipe. I am pleased with the way it came out.

It might look small because the back half is 2x4.

Here are the diagonal braces for the shock mounts and hitch.

So the radiator is mounted. I need to run a straightener through the fins. It got pretty beat up in shipping. But I modified the lower hose and built mounts and a fan shroud. Need to add a port for the heater hose.

Simple radiator cover.
