Some exhaust on the VW.

One side almost done, other side is a little more intricate.

A little more tweaking and I can weld the mid pipe to the muffler and cat, and then start on a crossover, or H-pipe.

Here are the latest shots. I am basically done with the exhaust now aside from the H-pipe. I needed to finish each side before I can tie them together with the H-pipe. I am pleased with the way it came out.

It might look small because the back half is 2x4.

So the radiator is mounted. I need to run a straightener through the fins. It got pretty beat up in shipping. But I modified the lower hose and built mounts and a fan shroud. Need to add a port for the heater hose.

Simple radiator cover.
