356 Project - Inner Longitudinal Repairs 

Thanks Joe! It would be almost impossible to do it on my back. I've seen others do it on a Cellette bench, but even that looks difficult.

Oh yes! it's a thousand bite size pieces!!!

It feels like I'm not moving, but I know it will lead somewhere soon!

Yes... The order of operations can be every bit as important as where things go. I feel like I assemble and disassemble the car in my head about 1000 times!

Thanks CT! Baby steps.

Happy late birthday brother! Yes, there is a lot of extraction left to go!

Thanks Terry!

I haven't thought about 3d printed dies... That could be pretty interesting. I have seen a few folks CNC mill wood and aluminum dies for short run parts. I have a feeling we'd be surprised by the results.

You know it! Thanks

I've been following Dom's A since he started it. I think he's got a bit more work than I do, but not by much! I also know Mike F and CT. VW Darrin builds all of CT's motors. Darrin did the motor in my Ghia vert about 10 years ago... It seems like a small circle! Mustie1 is also one of the OG guys in our aircooled/VW circle. There are several others. I try to follow them all. They are incredibly knowledgable.

Thanks Russ!

Oh and Happy BD mate.

@@ziggassedup Thanks Ziggy!

LOL! There's a lot there! The good news is that the replacement parts are REALLY well made and they are BIG pieces. It should come back together quickly.

There is def a lot of work ahead!

Thanks Craig!

Thanks William!
