what a great show today. There was alot of VWs there today, could have been near 200. I haven't seen a turn out like this in many years. Very nice weather. And yes another one of the VW's I did won. http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2238467680101866121VcZyXF couldn't have asked for a better...

My heart felt prayers and best wishes to all our friends over in London. Hope none of our RAMVA people have been directly touched by these Horrible events.

I'm about to start rebuilding my 1200cc motor. I've done a lot of research, read a few books (including the Bentley Bible),and watched a few engine rebuilding videos. There seems to be some difference of opinion concerning the rear main seal. Some advocate applying glue on the outer edge of...

On the internet over the years, we have seen just about everything. Remember when flash was new and impressive. People are hard to impress today. Check out the site at this link. I was impressed by this guys web work although not related to VWs. http://www.leoburnett.ca/

VW lost $1.29 bilion in North America last year and for some reason VW's chairman has a problem with that. There is some group of people that will be traveling around (hopefully in a Toyota) looking for peoples oponings about what people want in cars. (how about aircooled) Article is here....

awful quiet here.....so...what have you folks be up to? any work/improvements to your vw's?

I thought someone made stainless brake lines to replace all the metal lines. Does anyone know a source for them? I'm putting a sand rail together for a guy and would like to set it up so he doesn't worry about rust while it sets at his beach house. Thanks

I had a customer come in and say someone broke into his car and stole his wheels , speakers and gear shift knob from his ghia. http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2156831230101866121zQCfgQ Someone(s) in this area that has a vw is stealing parts. I would like to ask the person that Lee (lives...

What should our ghia get? DP 1776cc in a cabriolet. I keep under 75 on the freeway. > g adds. MONEY , what a concept

Spotted a couple of bugs out in 2 different pastures this past week or so. Look to me a 74 and the other is a late 66, maybe 67. Pretty sad shape from what I can tell but I'll bet they are "show winners". I'll have to track down the owners and find out the scoop, etc. Randy

If you don't own a thirty year old plus automobile it's sort of hard understanding how much a pain in the ass it is to keep it running, especially if you're not a rich dude who can plunk down money to get an old car restored like it ain't no thing. I bought my car ten years ago about and put a new...

http://www.big-boys.com/articles/policetazer.html Would be great for enforcing the kids doing their chores around here. "Did you take the trash out or did you forget AGAIN!?!?" "I forgot..." *** BZZZZZTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!! *** "Wrong answer!!!"

Could we (RAMVA) come up with a unified way of dealing with Mario. As we do for water cooled stuff that isn't wanted here either ! Maybe Jan (King) might have some thoughts ? anyone else? Rich

Today was just too fun !! Although the weather almost didn't cooperate, we had a fantastic turn out for the arrival of Herbie. Rough guess, about 50 VW's of all types lined up for a huge caravan into Pensacola complete with police escort. It was a real treat for everyone to see Herbie and...

basically a stock motor with an EMPI 3417 exhaust. preheater tubes are connected, but does little work keeping the manifold warm. Most likely from the less backpressure pushes little exhaust gases though now. Is there such a thing as an electric heater blanket I can wrap the manifold in or maybe...

I think when VWoA wanted to seperate from the aircooled years we should have embraced this. I have a newer Jetta at the shop that do to electrical problems is not worth fixing but the owner just won't listen. He already left it at my shop for a yr waiting to get the thousands it was sure to cost...
