I have a 1962 Notch that has no Back Up Lights/ Reverse Lights. Didn't come with them but I sure would like to put on a set and have thought of using driving lights for that purpose on the rear bumper. I don't like the looks of the ones that add to the licence plate light. But this is not the proble...

I discovered that myself after I had posted here. I like the idea that was posted of how to put an actual VW alternator on the Notch engine. I have more or less decided to go that route here. On the Volks Wagner note though I have most of what I need for the sound system now. I have a pair of Califo...

A tear dropping from the drivers headlight too. Gotta have that.

Saved off the plans for adapting the VW alternator. This would be good to spread around. Keeps everything looking right. On another note though I mentioned before that I'm into classic rock. That lends to the fact that for a lifetime my friends and relatives have always calledxc me a Hippy but I nev...

It's either that or "Journey to Gotterdamerung" also by Wagner Or I could go to the old quadraphonic piece from the early seventies "Autobaun" It would also fit in with a VW. I do like your quote though about Volks Wagner. Sort of has a ring of Mad King Ludwig to it. Ludwig was the patron of Wagner ...

Found the article that does the alternator conversion http://www.aircoolednut.com/erkson/ttt/engine/gen2alt.htm But I have also found a 75 Amp Alternator that is the same 93 MM that the seat for the Type 3 generator is. http://www.powermastermotorsports.com/105_IS_PowerGEN.pdf and it is even built t...

Well a 120 watts RMS per side can be loud if you want it to but the only time I would do that is to play "Ride Of The Valkaries" by Vaugner while I was at a stop light having to listen to the Trans Am playing "Boom Boom Pow" by The Black Eyed Peas or something like that. But a 120 watt sound system ...

I know there is no room to put a VW alternator in where the type 3 generator comes out of and I seen a post someplace where a guy took his generator in to a parts place and found a Japanese Alternator that was about the same sizde. He adapted it to fit. Now a regular Alternator like this will still ...

Car would have been 15 to 20 years old.

I pity the chore ahead of you. I just bought a 62 Notch myself that had been parked in a field for 19 years. It's in a lot better shape than yours and is esentially just a clean up job and new paint other than a new floor. And yet I dread how much work i even have to do. I once built a 1916 Model T ...
