Mandela & Sobukwe were arrested driving this same beetle in Kippiestown in northen Natal in 1974 by the special forces.

No PMs PLEASE as I am out at sea for a few weeks whaling, simply call me, and will arrange for viewing.

You say the bug is a 77 but mandela was areested in this bug in 74..... doesnt add up?

Huh got the wrong thread... I never said anything like that

Yo SuperbeetleNO244, wassup bruuu?

Hi to the haters out there...

While some of us with love to do nothing but type in lies and make up krap, others have lives to live like the recent arrival of a baby boy (new aircooled addict).

thus far I have collected:
1 Type iv from an earlier kombi (bay window);
1 type iv from a square kombi with hydrolic lifters;
2 alternators (20v toy);
crank pulley multi ridge;
24 cm alumn fan;
sample out off fibreglass upright cooling shroud;
8 x 103 chev lumina pistons;
brand new oil cooler with electric fan;
turbo t3 I think with inercooler;
got head from a 2.8 gtx;
8 valves from a nissan 2400 king cab; and
2 x 2 40 20v throtthle bodies.

awaiting the 82 mm crank as I gave it back to previous owner to provide details and sample of bearings

Nice!! Another Type 4 being built.

I like your ideas, keep them coming

I don't see barrels on your list. Maybe speak to IMPI on this forum for his modified Deutz barrels. I'm using that type with 102.92mm pistons and it works well at a good price.

The valves will

Ja I know I posted somewhere that those valves can work BUT it is a lot of work they need to be shortened special valve guides lash caps etc etc. remember we did this in the early 90's when nothing remotely similar was available.
Far better to make custom valves
