I spent a while today chasing down an electrical gremlin, to get my back-up lights to work. Of coarse, it was the very last thing I checked. There was a frayed wire inside one light housing. I was just happy to get these lights glowing!

Front Bumper and Running Boards


I got the front bumper installed. She looks like a Beetle again.












I also had time to get the running boards. They are Wolfsburg West as well. They are one of the only places that you can find colored running boards, well, other colors, not only black.

Rear Bumper Installed

I got the rear bumper installed today. It went on pretty easily. It is a Wolfsburg West bumper, so it is made very well. I did not, however get the back-up installed. I need to get them rewired, after the engine fire in 1991, the wired that ran through the engine compartment got a little burnt.

Dash Warning Light

Again, It is always the little victories. I got my fuses today, so I was able to power the entire system, with a low voltage battery from a Power Wheels. There is just something cool to see those two light all lit up.
