    @goosehd Thanks, man. Just looking at the pictures, I cannot quite believe how much time I put into that... But then again, how many lawyers are out there that can set up a rear differential? It's the skills I learn along the way that keep me going.

              Thanks, guys. Here's two more for your entertainment - work in progress, so to speak.

              The Comet in January 2010, half a year after I bought it. Got finished in 2012.
              The van in March 2016, roughly five years after I got it. Slow progress, the kids got in the way... Was finally done in 2018.

                          some great quivers throughout this thread. here are my two projects: 96 FZJ Land Cruiser (triple locked - IYKYK). just starting to get working on this one and learning the wonders of a straight axle & mountain goat qualities of this beast

                          IMG_5752.jpg

                          my 1986 VW Vanagon Syncro (2 knobs) (which I just sold to a friend w/first buyers rights when/if he should decide to sell it). This was my first foray into engines and transmissions. my background is chemistry so i really geeked out on learning the engineering/physics and chemistry of engines through this car. it was a great van for camping, ski trips and just rolling slow with a smile on your face.

                            Brilliant photos @Inorganic. I hadn't seen a Vanagon in years, and when we spent a week in Austin, TX late last month i saw like 6 of them. Find the hipsters, find the vanagons

                              So nice @Inorganic, drove one (not a syncro though) in the late 80s, and loved it. My parent had a T2 in the 70s in which we toured Southern Europe when I was a kid, and now I have a T5 California (IMO technically the best VW bus), but I love them all.

                                @jordanscollected oh these are definitely loved by hipsters, I'm guessing because they are so 'instagramable', which has driven the prices of these thru the roof.

                                @endo I've not seen a T5 in the US (I think they are euro spec only? perhaps because of emissions, plenty of T4's around). I watched a review of the California - looks pretty rad and, as expected, well thought out from a space usage/amenity perspective.

                                  sorry, typo, I meant I have a T4, think it was a good decision to put the engine in the front

                                    I wish I would still have my T3 that got me across whole Europe 20or so years ago.

                                          @Heavy_blue While the 67/68 Fastback is indeed a cool car, the 69 has grown on me over the years. If I had the chance, I'd take the 69 Sportsroof over the 68 Fastback. In the meantime, my 65 convertible will do 😁
