Hi Justin, having been following your thread. looks ace glad it went to loving home and got the attention she needed. might see you a few shows although my trekker wont be on the road till next year now

I'm at the start of restoring my trekker, i know its not a type 3 or 4 but the floorpans are ghia :-)and recently sold my square to justin on here. bought new pans but cant seem to locate the section that goes at the rear of the floor pan onto the tunnel and sits on the lug to the front of the torsi...

rod is the same as beetle one, theres one in the beetle master cylinder thats in car at the moment. Nice to see she's getting the love she deserves i've got some spare 'rusty' stickers if you want them if not my new car will be 'rusty 2'

If austin doesnt want too much for the bearings i'd buy them anyway and keep them for the future !! or there's most likely somebody on here who could use them. look forward to seeing at next years DATM SHOW !!

Hi Justin, the seats should release automatically when you open the door as originally they had cables that ran from a fitting on the door pillar. The cables run round to under the seat to release the seat latch. Unfortunatally these were rusted solid when i got the car. The cables should be in with...

Nice to see 'rusty' getting the attention she deserves you gonna leave the rusty stickers on?

Hi justin, passed on your number to someone who has some nos front beam bearings. if he doesnt contact you let me know and i'll text you his number. Mark

Nice to see its gone to good home look forward to seeing back on the road. Keep an eye on the scrumpy dubbers fb page. Bring down to a meet when finished. Enjoy.

just love the colour orange !!! the trekker next to it is now in middle of body off resto was my daily for 12 years.

owned 'rusty' for a year or so, so thought i'd post some pics. Had some advice and bits off people off here. :-) http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww84/markthehat/IMG_0111.jpg http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww84/markthehat/IMG_0113.jpg http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww84/markthehat/IMG_0108...

Very nice, wish i'd keep mine now, jpc411k, but sold it on as project, but do drive a 67 square as my daily so shouldnt complain

JPC 411k Was mine, sold on as project to singer who got it on the road. He sold it either late last year or early this year to someone on here i think as they contacted me for details but can't remember their name. certainly singer spent lots of money and it looked good.

We changed brushes but havent checked anything else yet too busy separating trekker body and floorpan !!

Hadn't even thought about the cooling ! Haven't stripped the type 3 one yet, hoping its just a broken wire otherwise it's get it rewound or buy a new one. I will want it back for the trekker at some point !! when i've finished restoring it

Was my son looking for one. Have used a type 1 we had knocking about in the end. just swapped pulleys over.

Cheers Gracie, have been searching and not found one! 45 euros!!!

In Somerset, just outside yeovil, if you have an engine mount rubber quite willing to pay postage etc.

Hi Marko and editor, ye its the one at the back not the side ones that marko has shown, there for late ones. Cheers for part no will do search

the rubber type doughnut on the rear engine mount of my 67 square has perished. Are these available new? as can't seem to find them?

is it early or late? tried wider rears on my early square and had clearance issues on arches, but mine has been lowered

as its an early one the indicator stalks are actually quite simple. only three springs and they shouldnt fly off when you take it off, mine didnt !! but yes check all connections etc first.

Welcome, Looks nice and solid, and hi back seats

Thats lush loving the patina and nice looking interior.

Ok cheers mike, who said old vw's were simple !!! my trekker just ran until it wasnt safe to use anymore!!!! will see how i get on thanks for info.

??? the clutch that was in there was a 210 mm one, all did in the end was replace friction plate as we had new one laying about. should i have replaced that with 200 mm clutch then as the thrust bearing on the later clutch is different to the ones on early clutch. Sorry for sounding stupid
