Well my foster fasty , really my brothers car , is back on the road, This week I should get the paperwork worked out. My Brother threw a rod on his way to work and then bought a used Acura. he wants to keep the car so thats where I come in. I put in a beater motor i had, cleaned up the carbs, adjusted the brakes, installed a Formula Vee steering wheel and a Flat four shifter. For now it works OK . Next I need to replace the Tranny mount and shifter bushings( wish I knew this when the motor was out) I think a rebuild on the carbs would be a good Idea and replace the obnoxious exhaust with something quieter, i cant see how I ever liked a loud exhaust. Now I have a type 3 to drive around again and my brother gets to drive a VW to the shows. I guess it works out. -Bryan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
