Hi Jim,

They need pretty much everything. If you remember a couple weeks ago 
Russ posted a scan of the German title for his Type 34:

http://classicvw.org/gallery/The-ghia/kscan_0001_001

Some of the data it shows that I need some proof for is...

- Max. engine horsepower rating/RPM level
- Displacement (in cubic centimeters)
- The car's empty weight (kg)
- Maximum allowable weight when fully loaded (kg)
- Maximum wight on front axle (kg)
- Maximum weight on rear axle (kg)
- Wheel base (mm)
- Maximum speed (kph)
- Noise level in idle
- Noise level while driving

My "Without Guess work 71-73" has no noise data, so I doubt the later 
one has that. It would be great if you had some way to scan the pages 
with that information and send them to me.
