    It looks like a beautiful restoration.
    This wouldn't be in Minneapolis, would it?

    I'm actually in Buffalo, NY.
    That car is just pretty legendary on the mk1 vw scene.
    Great job on the repair on the bunny, and the paint on the boat!
    Now I'm going to wait eagerly for updates, haha.

    It was very fast but like Jeff said I blew it over trying to work on engine height. I bet I had less than 4 hours on the water with it. The motor was fine and is now on my dr-20.

    I have seen this thread but never checked it out. Chet, I am sorry about the end but the work you did to that Stream was astounding. I have seen many modifications over the years but that was by far the best. Incredible vision and the craftmanship impressive. You should certainly be proud of that one.
