Let The Work Begin ...

July 10, 2014
After breakfast ... it was time to go work on the VW ...
now that the tires were put back on ...
the crew were able to push the VW into the shop ...

This is going to be a huge project ... 
even trying to find a place to put the hoist arms was difficult ...
as the floor of the VW is completely rusted out ...
Grandpa and Craig managed to work together ...
and eventually the VW was hoisted  up into the air ...
for them to get a closer look at how they were going ...
to remove the body from the chassis..

While the guys were busy in the shop ...
Ella was giving me a hand in the house ...
helping with the laundry ... putting dirty clothes in ... taking clean clothes out ...
then handing the clothespins to me ...
to hang them on the line ...

Once the laundry was hung out on the line ...
it was time to venture down ...
to the garden ...
to pick a few strawberries ...
 and other vegetables needed for our evening meal ...

All in all it was a very productive busy day ...
Thanks to our 3 big (little) helpers ... !!!

  2. Those photos of the VW are amazing, it will be so great to see it restored! I had a 1968 one in blue just like that, my first car! Great to see all the kids being such great helpers! Xox
