New Panel! Should I strip it? by
Hi All, New front panels for my 68 bay arrived from GSF today! I have a couple of questions: 1) Should I strip the black stuff before etch primeing it or just etch prime on top? 2) Should I use the fold over flap at the bottom like 74 bay ( would it make this section stronger) or...

Splitty spotting N.CA. by 1 who waits
going down the freeway got past by a '62 T-2. Lowered all around and very nice. Headed to a 4/20 celebration, I guess. Nice Vibes and I liked their window sticker; it said; "I like Pie" -- It's amazing what you can do. If... you put your mind to it.

Is this a scam or what? by 1 who waits
I keep getting this recording that says; My auto warrantee has most likely expired and I must hurry to extend it. They always say it's my second notice , while in truth they've called a dozen times. What makes me skeptical is that my car is 47 y.o. Could it be they offered a warrantee for VW's...
