Camper pop-up canvas. by Bill[_20_]
Hello, Is West Coast Metric the most reasonably priced place to get the canvas replacement for my 75 Westy? I ordered from them years ago a sunroof canvas for my ex - 63. They still seem competitively priced (about $305 w/shipping), but maybe I'm missing somebody else. Thanks in advance, Bill

Dual port resources by [email protected]
I just bought a 1969 std. Beetle. The engine is not original, as it's a 1600 cc dual port. I don't even know what "dual port" is exactly. I'm assuming the term is related to the intake manifold or injectors, so I'd appreciate it if anybody could point me toward a good online resource outlining...
