Hi folks, Trying to get the '66 fastback back on the road and moving. I got my 7 year old out to help me (that was a chore "but dad I'll get dirty"...girls) bleed the brakes after I re- re-built the MC. This time it worked. I think Jim said he never could make the vacuum bleeders work, guess neither can I! Nothing like a extra hand or foot to help things along. Installed some $1 swapmeet shocks and finished cleanint/sealing/painting and installing the gas tank. Some progress yes, but I need a couple of things. I need: Steering shaft (only) with locking shells in place ('66 or earlier I think.) Here is a picture of the shaft and shells (they are welded on) http://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/index.mv?photo+56166.jpg 6v starter These are a bit heavy, so anybody in Southern CA have a lead? At this point I'll pay for the shipping though. That said, Pomona is in two weeks, so if no one responds I'll be asking for some assistance with extra sets of eyes at the swap :-0 Thanks for any help!
