Anyone know the pros & cons? Any importers who can get around the huge duties/fees/etc? Possibilities of dismantling & importing as parts & reassembling? Subsequent rego problems? etc? thanks in advance for any assistance Mac

Just a note of thanks to all the people in this group such as Speedy Jim for helping me out. You haven't heard from me in a while...'cause I got the dang thing to purr! I had an idle problem on my 75 SB converted to pict34 carb. Fast story is that I got a new carb and it is purring like a...

I have a 1972 camper van with a 1600cc motor. Lately I have had a hard time getting my key to go into the ignition. Most of the time I can get it in no problem and it turns easily. But sometimes it is hard to get in but turns easily, but now I can't even get my key to go in. There is no steering...

What engine came stock on the 1969 Fastback. Was there an option to get a carbureted engine instead of one with fuel injection?

Someone at work gave me a very big box of vintage VW Bug screws,nuts bolts etc. All had been seperated , engine tin screws, 10mm rear deck lid bolts, the best part was the bag of those shoulder bolts for the rear seat back pivot points. My car was missing them. I found that there are several...

Replaced all fuel lines and relocated fuel filter so it's not between the fuel pump and carb. Also found that there is an inline valve coming off of the tank that looks just like the one you'd find on most motorcycles. There's definitely an "on" and an "off" position and (even though I didn't...

I'm taking a 2000 1.8L Turbo Beetle in for the 70,000 mile check up soon. Should I preemptively change the timing belt or wait until I hit 100,000? How much should changing the belt add to the cost of the check up? For that matter, how much should a check up cost? Thanks.

To All: Feller writes to ask: 'Is a soldering gun the same as a soldering iron?' (He's stumbled upon the TULZ Series, got down to Chapter Three, is trying to tool himself up for some electrical repairs.) The basic answer in this particular case is 'yes,' an induction-type soldering gun will...

I'm looking for an am/fm radio in working order that will fit the dash of a '74 van. I don't care what brand it is, as long as it works! If anyone has one for sale, please email me at: Thanks Terry

I'm pretty much being forced (divorce) to sell my Ghia that I've hung onto for years--it was my baby--but haven't done much with in a long time. I was wondering roughly how much I can get for it. If anyone could give me a rough valuation, that would be wonderful. The details: -'68 or '69 coupe...

I'm trying to remove the steering wheel on a '62 Single Cab. I've read all the threads I can find. After loosening the nut I've tried pounding on the bottom with a shock resistant hammer (until I made a new crack, ouch!), pulling and tugging, and heating the metal part with a blow torch. I see...

Hi all, I have been lurking off and on for a while and decided it is time to get fully engaged. I bought my wife a triple white 79 vert and it is pretty good shape but I want to get it in great shape. 1st, it has a problem with starting. It seems like the battery is always down and it needs to...
