I have got tell somebody.  So why not first my Vanagon list buddies?  I
have been doing a ground up, down to the last washer restoration of my
1963 Type 1 sedan for the last 5 years!  I started it up and drove it
for the first time last night.  Damn it was great and I will never do
another one again.  Too easy to get carried away.  It is all German
Stock with the exception of a super built 1776 and a close ratio
transmission.  I blue printed and balanced the engine with some head
work, Dellortos and exhaust stuff.  It tipped the dyno at 122
horsepower.  (This way I can tow my Vanagon home next time it dies
somewhere!!)  Just have to dial in the wheel alignment and few other
little details and I will be good to go.  It is Turkis with white/gray
interior.
