Hi Gang-
Our TiiCo arrived a week ago today.  Pretty exciting stuff considering
I ordered it in early May.  When the crate was offloaded, I did see
that one of the corners was split open and that some of the contents
had shifted around a bit.  Everything looked OK though.  Now I wish
that there had been a parts list to check the crate contents against.
Last nite I realized that we are missing the left engine support and
the ignition control unit.  I e-mailed Peter but haven't heard back
yet.  Anyone know if he stocks any of this stuff here in the U.S., or
do these missing parts have to originate in S.A.?

The other neat part about our project is that we had a failing tranny
at the same time.  Well, might as well jump all the way in and go with the Weddle 5 speed.
That arrived about a month ago.  My expectation is that the Golf
engine and a 5 speed tranny should make an awesome combo.  I'll let
you know...

Gary
