brandon's blogLittle things here and thereI had some time to add a few things to the site today. Well ok, just a few more links on the links' page. Please check them out. Also, I wanted to post a picture of a new toy that was given to me by a friend. He is a toy collector and he ran across this cool Japanese made toy. Doing a bit of poking around on eBay I found one. It is a Bandai tin VW toy from the 1960's. It was a nice gift and it is going on the shelf with some other VW toys I have picked up.  By brandon at 07/17/2007 - 8:13pm

New FeaturesI have been playing around with 2 new features. #1 I have added a links page to the menu. If you want to add a link to this site, all you have to do is log in and go to create content and you can add your favorite VW links to the list. #2 Image display script. If you click on the images on the blog page the screen turns dark and the full size picture (when available) unfolds out of the background all ajaxy. I know it is just eye candy, but I dig it. Also it works nice in the firefox web browser. By brandon at 01/07/2007 - 7:22pm | read more
Getting Things Squared Away My wife took a picture of me working on the server getting a few things squared away. I am still getting used to the command line trying to figure out exactly what to do backups on and when. I have done a lot of work just to get this far and I might freak out if something were to happen, like a dead hard drive. The garage situation is now final, I am going to move around things in my 1 car garage and do it at home. It would have been nice to start the project in a place with more room, but it is not practical to have it at a friends house. By brandon at 12/18/2006 - 1:28pm | read more

Lazy SaturdayToday I am chillin'. I got to sleep in to about 9:30. So I am feeling great. My wife Melissa and I took a trip over to Daniel's VW to talk to Eddie about this project and just hang out for a bit. And while we were there I took a picture of the outside of his shop. One of the things we talked about was the fact that I have no room at my house for this size of a project. Four bedroom house with a single car garage NICE.. So I am going to find a small shop or something to use for the resto. I hope I can find a place soon. Oh well I am going to go pour a tall beer and try not to think about it for a bit.

Research..Let the games begin! Well kinda... I have started the the research part of this project. First off, break out all the VW old mags and books to completely confuse me. It's like going to buy paint for the kitchen. You go into the hardware super store and stand in front of the huge rack of color samples and your brain just locks up. You can get overwhelmed with all of the color choices knowing that whatever you end up picking will not be close to what you had in mind. However, if you pick a bad color it is easy to repaint. It might cost some time, but it is not going to break the bank. By brandon at 12/05/2006 - 3:17pm | read more
