I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

The Hassia fog lights arrived in one piece today.  They've got more scratches on the back side chrome than I hoped but they're in otherwise really nice condition.
Scored this NOS fuel pump yesterday from a local guy.  He's getting out of the Type 3 scene and has a few parts remaining.  I'll be going back and picking up a few more things before he clears out totally.


In other news, I discovered that CIP1 has a CSP disc brake kit for the Type 3 in stock and it's on sale.  I'm tempted to buy it and pair up the timing with the inbound NOS drum spindles.  It would buy me some time in getting a proper bracket for the Airkewld brake kit manufactured that will eliminate the washers as a part of the assembly.  I would install the Airkewld kit on the 65 some time down the road.  I could then do a full write up on my experience with the two kits for anyone wondering which one is better overall - assuming my opinion means anything.  I've got a few hours to decide before the sale ends.
