Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

      looks like 155km plus once around the clock! you don't get that kind on road grime build up in the arches and on the engine/gearbox from only 155kms.

            ***** Any one interested in going halves of this price wise as I am interested in just the front panel and bumper and some other odd parts **** My contact in Brisbane can collect the parts but unfortunately not in a position to take the car. Message me if any one is interested and I can give an exact list of parts I'd like to try and get from this car.

                  OK, here goes.
                  Car is plated 10/76.
                  Last rego sticker 10/78 NSW
                  engine number matches rego sticker.
                  No rust anywhere I looked Ie passenger foot well, sills,gutters,air intake tray,spare tyre well.....
                  no water marks under the dash, around the fusebox.
                  No fatigue around the clutch cable/firewall.
                  dash is good, paint is very good.
                  quarter vent glass is intact.
                  First service was due at 1000km and still on the window.Not done?? but on date reminder.
                  lots of oil marks/drips around the oil sender & on the gearbox below.
                  so mileage on the speedo must be wrong.
                  Is a very original car except for the front&back damage.
                  Measured the front and is about 30/35mm out on all bentley measurements.
                  Bad creasing on rear subframe(rh rear). wheel arch has pulled away from the floor(the black line). (rh rear 2).
                  Crease has gone all the way to the lh side (lh rear)
                  Don't know how well it would pull out on a jig?
                  To much for my liking but good for spares.



                  Sorry about the photos but all had my phone.
