Lights done... now the carb!
I was able to get the turn signals and lights working this past weekend on Little Blue. Viking Auto Parts, the VW store in Novato, helped with the new bulbs....
But we are not quite ready to roll yet. After Mike pointed out in the comments a few posts ago, the piece on the carb where the fuel line goes in is NOT supposed to come out. I suspected as much and asked Bryan at Viking what he thought. "Engine fire for sure, dude" was his response. Great.
So my choice was to get a new core and do a rebuild or buy a rebuilt carb. I opted for the rebuilt carb since I want to get Little Blue on the road as soon as I can. Bryan is going to build one for me (for $110) and I'll swap them out. After doing that, I plan on rebuilding my old carb with a new core just to see if I can...

I'm still voting to BB as a name for the car.
