After messing with my 1969 1500 single carb stock notchback over the last week, I have a f÷/¦ ore questions for the list; Does checking valve clearances on a type 3 require the engine out or is there a simpler method? and could anybody give an estimate of the time it takes to remove the engine and all accesories in order to get at the valves? Also, those of you with shiny smooth cars, almost every panel on my notchback is pitted/dented/lumpy. Could you please outline your methods for making a smooth panel from a thirty year old panel showing signs of abuse? What bodywork is involved? Should a novice tackle this? My car is rust-frei but old. Thanks all. Charlie ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web! Visit http://www.vwtype3.org/list/
