Congratulations, since 69 was the last year of the early body style, it remains one of my favorite years. It comes with the best of most everything: 12V, IRS, FI, early style. I hope you get it going well and are pleased with it. Just clean out the tank and exit screen. You may or may not get the pump to run, the FI controls it, so there will be a learning curve just getting power to it. You should count on replacing all the fuel hose, that's about 12-15 feet of hose. Study the Bentley manual and ask questions here as they come up. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
