Red wine and auctions

Don't mix,

My daughter is on her L plates and was thinking about buying a car
some time.

We were playing around on eBay and found a 1970 type 3 notchback with
2 hrs left to bid.
It all happened so fast ..... it's really cool.....I know I've only
got 10%......the shopping goes in the front.........
I love you Dad.......

Any way here it is :-)

I did a bit of reading and the opinion seems to be to run it on
premium unleaded with no additive,
we changed the oil today and used Castrol gtx2 ( recommended from a vw
forum for air cooled )

Eventually found the battery, still looking for the oil filter?

I will probably have a few questions to ask but for now just wanted to
say hello.

Is there anything I really need to know in a hurry?

There is no oil filter. You can stop looking now

You got lucky. Take care of that Type 3. We almost bought one back in the
'70's but the mark went up too fast vis a vis the dollar. We had to settle
for a used Corvair.

I wish they had "L" plates on this side of the pond. Especially at rush
hour.
