Re: 1971 VW Type 3 Fastback
The jobs keep coming here and there. We had a nice dry weekend just done so I went out for a 20 mile blast before i tucked up for winter. In the mean time I finally got around to fitting the jacking point blanks after a decent polish. https://am3pap007files.storage.live.com/y4mKIIX0YxUNEcBbKRgAv3DPh...

I think its a safe bet that the Euro shows will be. Theyre far more and id say overly cautious.

Re: Fastback Front beam question
That's roughly where the hole should be. If you look inside the car in the passenger footwell near to the tunnel you will see where it should enter the car. I would advise against running it through the hole you are thinking as that's inside the tunnel. This will mean you have to make a hole at the ...

Re: Hessisch Oldenorf, Germany and EBi Belgium postponed
Yeah, I wouldnt go expecting any shows until June (ish) weve only just started winter. 3 more months of this year, then it a month or two for the phase out of winter. The vacinne will take 6 months to have a noticable effect, unless they are able to roll it out at a world beating pace. And lets face...

Re: '67 Square continued.....
Nice to see the proper colours being used and someone removing bodge wiring! Ive no idea why people mess around with wires when they dont have a clue. Its so easy to start a fire and then its game over. Looks like youve dodged a bullet from a previous owner! Nicely played sir.

Re: 71 Fast Back Recommissioning
Sounds like a nomral rebuild to me
These old busses didnt get a lot of care in the 90s and early 2000s. The best way to clean the breather out itself is to jsut wash it through with dissel a few times.
Keep up the good work.

Keep up the good work.

I'm sure plenty of people will have them. I may have some kicking about. I can see you have the elbows. But they have a small take off point in them. It's important that is blanked off.

Re: 71 Fast Back Recommissioning
Good work, theres a few improvments you need to make there. You are missing the rear air filter support. The balance pipe arrangement is all worng. You need a pair of the 2 into 1 peices and then you should have 1 balance pipe. A per the attached. Item 14 https://ch3301files.storage.live.com/y4mKRrh...
