Safari Window Frame Assembly Trick Safari Window Frame Assembly Trick
Thom
Here's a trick I figured out for assembling safaris or popouts. I used 5/8" aluminum channel, which I bought @ the hardware store, along with 2 woodworking clamps. The channel distributes the force along the entire lenght of the frame, making it easier to pull together. The cost of the aluminum was ~$4.00

This is the 58 Single Cab I just picked up. I am restoring a 58 Karmann Ghia, and just couldn't say no to the Single Cab. The only thing it really needs is some wiring work and an engine, not bad for $500...
