Remove bug body to finish frame welding etc #331

I can finally start heading towards paint. I have removed the VW bug body and can now start to finish the welding. I also have the e-brake finished on the top of the frame. I will need to flip the frame over once more to finish the parking brake system. Paint is coming.

Locate and create the E-brake brackets #330

I can now place the e-brake mechanism in place below the console. I have created 2 angle brackets to bolt to the unit and then weld them to the frame. This is one of the last things I have to do before removing the body to paint the frame.

Start tearing down to remove the VW bug body #329

I now have everything that will attach to the front of the frame tacked in place. I can remove it all and start getting ready to paint the frame. I still need to finish mounting the parking brake to the frame below the console, then I can take it all apart.

Finish the ABS bracket and tack it down #328

With the ABS unit mounted to my new bracket, I have located it next to the power steering pump behind the steering rack. I will be removing all the hardware soon to finish all of the frame welding and get ready for paint.
