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,

          And now for the real Passat...
          1976 LS - 113,000 just clocked up... Needs wheel bearings...
          Work to date?
          New carburettor, New brakes, new clutch, new front and rear shocks (canisters in front), chopped 1.5 coils front springs, New waterpump, New heater hoses.... Still after suitable suggestions for lowering other than chopping... My 75 TS sits lower, wondering if they had different springs?
          Too many dubs to mention....

              Yep, that's Tony's. He posts on here sometimes.

              Air cooled running gear, rear mounted engine and gearbox, beetle front end.

              He's previously made a boat the same way.

              Long term dubber and a co conspirator from the TypeVW days.

                If the engine's rear mounted where does he carry his bicycle for when it brakes down like all the rest of us classic car owners?
