Had to borrow my mechanics Matco impact to get enough torque but was able to break the stripped lug nut loose so finally was able to get all 4 wheels on the GTO
 
Cleaned it up a bit.. really contemplating selling it.

1970 VW Westfalia Bus.
Interior is out of it at the moment.
Really a solid starter.. front floors were rusty and were patched, but not replaced. Nose has putty. Dent in the rear drivers corner, but have an entire corner replacement.
Runs, Shifts... All new brakes.. new (correct) tires..
Needs: Put together, Fuel Pump (Currently rigged to check engine status), belt, oil seal (the easy one), and some wiring work.. Seats out of a CR-V.. leave it as patina or sand and paint.. or just do what I was going to do and do plasti-dip.. lol For 50 years old, its bound to have putty in it I dont know about, but a solid starting point.. have all kinds of parts from new CV Axles with boots to VW Emblems, gaskets, seals, blah blah.. box-o-parts, basically.. $5k

Fixed the airbag light in the CVPI. Turned out the NPS simply crimped passenger airbag bypass switch into the factory wiring harness. Computer systems in general do not seem to like climp connections very much, so I cut them off and soldered the wires together back to the bypass switch and no more trouble light! Just don't use climp connectors on computer harnesses, they have to be soldered.
 
Found out the Hellcat is done, just stuck in a delivery delay.

But, it has a window sticker now:

A little closer to reality.
