MadMike's 'Casper' 76 bug

[andy198712]

or that adapter could be pie cut? or one made as you were saying....

[madmike]

Pie cut would be simple if it weren't made of 'Cast Iron"
Merry Christmas!

Here You go Mike.....this might work.

[madmike]

Hey Art, I think that may work and will be faster then waiting on my 'welder' to fab one too.
Big thanks for the research

'Ordered'

[madmike]

all of our snow was gone (rained for two days and 40*+) until about 8am now 2" on the ground,, and still comin down wet heavy crap,,so I decided to finish Boost referencing the Demon carb, ended up using a piece of aluminum tubing, ,hope it's long enuff
tree's all bent down ,now we were without Power/electricity ,fired up the Gen. and we have a solar array too

[madmike]

Gusse were getting 12+" of snow by sunday night I may fire up the stove in the Garage and test fit my turbo? got the adapter from the link Art posted,

[Clonebug]

Forecast here calls for 3-5 inches snow and then the next day with 35 mph NE wind. Temps are supposed to dip down to 10* for the lows.
Should be just a blast.......literally......

Yuck! 80 degrees here! Usually barely 70 this time of year. I was just sweating outside in shorts taking down all the xmas lights!

[madmike]

Nice I'm old enough to be a 'snowbird' (fly down to fla. for the winter) but having a small farm it aint gonna happen,lol
weather wise we only got 4-5" so i'm not complaining I get up before the wife and stoke the stoves, it's 82* indoors

[buguy]

I wouldn't come here. There is too much traffic now. Wasn't bad 6-8 years ago, but now it's getting bad.

[madmike]

too many people down there, for me my nearest neighbor is over a mile away
Our little town is swapped with rally Cars this weekend is the "SnowDrift",, my son has won his class twice 2 wheel open and limited. so glad he's not racing this one, he's turboed now and the car is way to fast for ice&snow covered roads,I told him 'He's got nothing to prove' and even if he win's again he gets a small 'Medal' he may enter the U.P rally this summer? it cost over $2000 for ONE race,,$1200 just for entry fee

[buguy]

That would be fun though!
I understand though. This weekend is the 24 hours of Daytona here. There will be tons of people around. Actually this part of the year sucks for me here. We have this race, then next month is the Daytona 500, then March is bike week and the spring Rod run. So many people come here for that stuff it's silly. Can't go to a restaurant, traffic sucks, gas prices go up... Etc..

[madmike]

Good news my Welder is coming up from the Detroit area,for the Rally, bringing me a few "T" intakes i hope I'm not going to cut the one I have on the car now ,just in case this new Turbo doesn't work out
My welder didn't have time to whip anything up Said he'll ship them.

[madmike]

well 'Hibernation' is about over
We bought a newer Truck 2011 Tundra It should look good pulling my Bug sold my small Honda generator,to a young man yesterday and he's got an awesome Fab shop a few miles away,,He really liked my Bug,,, gonna make my Water /meth system for me Cheap!!!
