Re: My old 412 2 door saloon

Just an update 6 years further on. I was up in the Lancashire area last week and decided to take a trip to Milnthorpe. Visited the garage that used to be owned by Martin Booth, which is now a VW specialist service centre and Mot centre. No sign of anything resembling the remnants of the Martin Booth...

Re: Any info on my dad's old 412 variant please

I found this photo amongst my scanned pictures.

I think this is taken from VW Action Concours in 1986 when the show was held at the Stoneleigh Showground

Brian

The link only takes you to the logon screen with Yahoo, unless I am doing something wrong.

Unfortunately, no contact for replacement injectors. I will have a word with my mate who has just put his 914 back to injection after a spate on twin carbs.
Where abouts are you ??

Re: Type 4 spotted on BBC 2 tonight

Yes that is the programme, will probably have to wait a couple of weeks until the families are sent into that era so we can get a better glimpse of the 411.

Re: My old 412 2 door saloon

Another new year, another new start trying to see if I can trace my old 412.

Anyone know of it or seen it. Last seen in the Kendal/Milnthorpe area, although could be anywhere.

Please see previous threads for more details and pictures

Anyone ??

Re: Finally, after 4mnths, Barb has a working engine

I can confirm I have seen Babs moving under her own power.

Was spotted recently heading towards Gosport along the free flowing road they call the A32.

Nice motor as well. Good to see a Type 4 on the road.

Checked my album, and Fudge is not in there.

He will probably be in some of my old photos that will need to be scanned in and uploaded.

Re: FUDGE is back in the fold!

I am sure I have some pictures of 'fudge' somewhere. Will check my photobucket album later.

I am also sure this car used to be in the concours in the late 80's, and I think it was owned by a family from the midlands somewhere.

Re: My old 412 2 door saloon

No ANO was not mine.

Mine was PTF, it had a very very slight crease in the n/s, or was it the o/s rear quarter behind the door.

I just wonder where it is, whether it be sat in a garage somewhere awaiting time to put back on the road and hopefully not scrapped.

Re: My old 412 2 door saloon

Update on this.

I found the address that I went to to exchange monies etc when I sold it.

It was 4 Cedar Grove, Kendal.

Looked on Google street view and nothing there except a Saab in the drive. Could have moved or something. Anybody know the area in the past ??

Re: My old 412 2 door saloon

I presume you mean the one that had the Reg VIW 412. This is indeed was in the Southampton area. I believe he has sold it. The owner was Specky VW Freak on here I think. The colour wasn't Marathon Blue though it was that metallic Turquiose. Do you mean this one ?? http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g...

Thanks for that, that is probably not long after I sold it then, so who knows where it is. Could be in his garage.

My old 412 2 door saloon
