Sorry for being gone guys, I have been really busy with the baby and all, and since the wife can't work full time anymore we went from barely getting by to not at all. So we are filing bankruptcy to get out from under all the debt we accumulated when we were making good money. Its unfortunate, but at least its a light at the end of the tunnel. Basically I can't afford to finish the car right now but once this is all over with, ill be able to. Likely not going to make any trips this year, unless it happens quickly.. rest assured ill be back in the game soon!! The first order will be finish car, then it will be "fix up the $4000 replacement RV!
one thing I'v learned, if I can't buy it cash, I can't have it!!

Thanks! We really tried hard trading things in, selling stuff and all. LOTS of stress.. But as much as ihate doing it, this is our only way out. The front end kit for the bug basically just needs springs and some little bracing, but the fuel cell needs a pump, and a bunch of little stuff I don't have money or time for. I am still trying to get my electric bike thing going, its been tough with no money, but I almost have a working reduction gearbox, here's a pic.. 6 hp in a 45lb bike move out pretty good! I have some customers waiting on these boxes once I get it tested. I just hope they are patient! I built this from the ground up hardened the gears, etc. Its been ablearning curve! But I still think there will be buyers for these, its a new tech, and that is a good thing... Europe is exploding with turnkey elec MTB's butnone with this kind of power...

You know, just cause you got no money and shit is on hold does not mean you have to be a stranger. 

Good to see the kid.  Wife doing well?
