Bugspotting: Fever Pitch(2005)
Fever Pitch is a 2005 film starring Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore(a personal favorite). Jimmy Fallon plays a teacher and is a die hard Red Sox fan who falls for a up and coming female executive played by of course Drew Barrymore. The Volkswagen Beetle in question driven by Jimmy Fallon and is seen through at different parts of the film. According to the IMCDb.org it is a 1976 Volkswagen Beetle, though I think it’s wrong because after 1974 Beetles had the enlarged elephant foot taillights and from what I could see the one used here had the earlier version which was smaller. It’s a small point but it was still a nice surprise to spot it.

Engine Stand Bracket
Just received the VW engine stand bracket from Ebay (Courtesy of VW Alley). It fit's right on my engine stand I got from Harbor Freight. I'll need to drill a few (1/2") holes to use a pin to hold it in place. Then I'll still need a hoist to lift it up. Would love to get motor off the floor soon!
