Upper Shock Mount Stipped by
zungguzeng

Beetle, "customized" by a previous owner, with a generic Mexican
replacement...

Engine Lid Spring Trick by
\Harry Smith\
Hi,

Hello all,
Just a quick question for you knowledgable folk. I ordered new window
seals for my 1974 Beetle. I did one door and everything went fine,
except I must not have put the window back glass into the sash (I
