Finally, (after many headaches, and quite a few tries to get them up-loaded), I now have pics of my BRATs in the photo section.

I look in gallery but see no photos.

Dooo-kay. 'Parently i done did something wrong in there, but now they're there.

I even edited in the link to them in the opening post

Hey Tom did your rims come in yellow or did you paint them that color????? Are you going to change the color???? hmmmmm wondering mind wants to know LOL Vicky

yo! finally see what the 86 looks like. what was so bad with the hood that you needed a good one.

the one off the glf is available, it has a little surface rust, but its straight!

Vicky; the rims were painted by the youngin I bought the BRAT from. He had the idea of painting it with a Black and Yellow theme. The rims were all he got done, took him over a year to do those. That's when his Step-Dad decided that the kid just wasn't that interested in it, and told him to sell it. Was bought by the S-D as a project vehicle for them. And yes, the rims will be re-painted. The Wife has decreed so.

 

Miles; I was wanting another hood to do the hood scoop on. That way, ifin I mess it up, I ain't ruining my good hood on the '82. Yeah, ain't a bad pic of the '86, you can't see all of the rust in that shot. Kinda blends into the paint color and the shadows.

if you have seen my 'scoop yet, i have another piece of sheet metal pre bent to fit without trimming. i'll let you have it if you wanted it. I can most likely give you the GLF hood, if i can have the old one back as "core"

right now the glf is going to be parted for the BRAT, but it will need a hood if it goes back together with different parts.

 

so far josh is in control of the GLF, it was traded as credit for the RX, and the suspension is reimbursement for robert's suspension getting junked.

 

but for the moment the GLF just sits there, the hood dismounted. the only thing its doing right now is keeping water off the motor. but a big piece of plywood will substitute!
