So, to change subjects, I got a free vw today. 71 std. someone was going to make a back half trailer out of it, so its cut almost in half. All that wasnt cut was about 2 inches of the tunnel. You should have seen the roof flapping in the wind going down the interstate at 75 mph. I had to...

Saturday I was driving a 1952 MGtd that has been barned 15 yrs ago. tomorrow I go look at a 1943??? beetle . How much more fun can it be. another new project that looks like its going on the wait list is a 62 standard. My webshot page has gotten 3000 veiws so I guess I don't have to remind...

I don't think many of you care, but we had two sprint races yesterday at Daytona and we took 1st and 2nd place :) Going back for one more day today, for a 1.5hour endurance race. '72 911, 2.4 liters, stock class.

Today, when I went to the Lowe's store, I saw an old VW beetle car pulling out of the parking lot.I think it was a 1962 or 1963 model.It was being driven by an elderly gentleman.Good to see those aircooled VWs are still getting around. cuhulin

Had to replace the Ignition Sw on my T3 a few years back. Had intermittent problems since then I was never able to isolate and certainly didnt suspect the new switch. By the time I started looking the symptom had vanished only to manifest somewhere else.. After trying to start her after a week...

This is on a '77 convertible, how do you get the headrest off ?

Yeah, they suck. Of course BAP has been out of the rebuild(in my case probably just re-assemble) business for about 8 years now. My current engine was built by an inept fool in 1996. I did not install said engine in the car, I acquired the car with said engine. So....while I had the engine out to...

Hope this won't be a mistake .. Feel like I just can't go another year without a/c without heat ... etc and so on ... Decided that if it doesn't sell, I will stick it in the garage and when the time comes, use it as my coffin !! TOO MORBID ?? Auction ends in a few hours. -- Diane Whatever from...

How difficult should it be to remove the distributor? I have received all of the parts needed to make my distributor all new and spiffy, but I can't get the thing off the car. I have removed the hold down bracket nut (recall that we had determined it was the incorrect bracket) but I still cant...

Had to pull the engine out of the super beetle again tonight. Working alone it took me one hour twenty minutes to pull the engine out, get it out from under the car, and take it apart. Alternator, less than 500 miles on it, noisy rear bearing. Anyway...the reason I am posting..I need the cooling...

Hey, Wow, you guys are gonna be tired of me before this is over. I live in San Diego, and it gets pretty hot here. I have seen the oversized oil sump products that add 1.5 or more quarts to your lube system. I understand the cooling effect of this, but am curious as to whether anyone thinks...

This car hasn't run in 15 years. I have replaced fuel lines and cleaned injectors, replaced the double relay etc. etc. last night I tried to start it and lo and behold it came to life. I ran it for a while and drove it back and forth in the driveway. Today it won't run. It will start a bit but...

Finally got a reply from them today: Sir, we are in operation however we are not selling the CDI anymore. You might try looking on J C Whitney web site for different brand of CDI. -----Original Message----- From: P.J.Berg Sent: Saturday, September 26, 2009 4:39 PM To: ;...

Hi gang, You might remember me posting about this a few months ago, when I said I probably wouldn't get back to it for a few months... Today I'm glad to say I've gotten back to it. The car in question is a '74 standard Beetle, "customized" by a previous owner, with a generic Mexican replacement...

What is the size for the metal fuel line that runs through the frame? This is on a 77 factory FI Bug. Does it matter if it's bigger diameter? -- Mel P. 77 Bug & 70 KG Cabrio sites:

Ok, now that we have determined that the problem with the distributor hold down will require that I pull the distributor out, I am wondering if I should go ahead and upgrade the ignition with the Pertronix Ignitor product while I have the thing out. Have you guys had any experience with this...
