Thanks for posting the shopping list for me Jesse.
I will be making a custom tank, no on the stickers but will have everything powder coated, my wife is smoking hot (just ask me anytime), excess funds are a little hard to come by these days that is why I purchased the frame a year ago and have only just started the main build. I did go with a 2332 VW engine and built that last year. We skipped the cooler and went right for a brand new kegerator.
As soon as I take a few pictures I will post them.
Bryan
