I gave my car some TLC on a beautiful day. A good time was had by all.
My 71 SB is about 99% original. The radio is not stock, but I think

? tire size '68 bug29 Jun 2008 05:06 GMT5
I own a '68 Volkswagon automatic bug and need new tires.  The tire
size is 165R/15, but they've discontinued that tire size and people at

anyone in STL that could help tune my SB?28 Jun 2008 05:18 GMT7
I just got my engine back in my 72 SB - after frying a piston. I replaced
the pistons/cylinders and put new gaskets where needed. I also rebuilt the
carb and replaced the ignition components.
I finally got it started tonight but it's not right. I worked with it for

Proper alternator mounting tin orientation?28 Jun 2008 02:44 GMT2
  I am replacing my alternator.  After attaching the new one to the
mounting tin(the circular part with 4 ears for attaching screws, between the

Quick Fix27 Jun 2008 04:51 GMT13
Today my son and I wired a ford selnoid as his vw was having a hard
time starting.  Very simple and cheap, under $10.00 and about 15 min
work...I can't believe just how well this works.  I've seen others do
this before but never tried it myself.  I know many object to

Oil Everywhere!25 Jun 2008 05:53 GMT10
On my last post a few weeks ago, I was thinking of getting this pretty nice
'73 Karmann-Ghia but I decided against it and got a '67 Beetle.  It was
rebuilt about 8,000 miles ago and it now has a 1600 from the early 70's.
Well, I was about to load up the family for an evening ...

You guys who know me, know what I think of thermostats and flaps.  I
won't start a war or offend the " flap Gods" I hope but yesterday a
good friend of mine stopped in with a very hot 68 van.  He had checked
