Start cutting pass-through holes in rear fire-wall #357

I need to drill out the holes in the rear fire-wall for various tubes. There is a gas tank filler neck tube, two holes for the heater core runs, two holes for the A/C runs, one hole for the hydraulic clutch line and one for the rear brake line. Once all these holes have been drilled I can continue on with the painting.

E-brake cable runs inside of the VW bug frame #356

Before I can paint the top of the frame there is a couple of things I gotta do. The e-brake cable run partially inside the frame and partially outside. So I am creating a couple of brackets to hold the nylon cable guides to route the cables to the lever assembly.

Finish painting the bottom of the VW bug frame #354

After I finished priming the bottom of the frame, I painted it with heavy duty chassis paint. I will give this a few days to cure and then flip it back over upright. I can then focus on finishing the frame paint.
