Big thanks goes out to Alan and especially Lauren for spearheading a major overhaul of the hot rod side of our snail car the Golden Mean. We took it out for a spin late last night and boy does it haul now.

We now have a new clutch, 85amp alternator and heat!  These only a few of the amazing new things on the car for this year, more to come in the next few weeks.

Is that a solid fuel line and an electric fuel pump going into the carb? Did you fabricate that yourself?

Electric fuel pump with welded on mounts to the fan shroud. Typical VW cloth rapped flex hose.
