Hi all... I just arrived in Boston last night...somerville actually(right next to Boston). Many thanks to Russ and Greg who helped give me the confidence to keep plowing through....I had a day with Russ on sunday or was it saturday...quick tune-up the valves were tight, i need to get a new distributor(new can be a relative term). Thanks to all for your support, and offers of help-for those of you i didn't visit-there will be another time...the trip was too great to do just once. the scenery was beautiful. next time i will put new pads on the seats right away! we bought some chunks of foam from a fabric store along the way to protect our butts... now that I am home-the hardest part is going to be letting it sit for a little while-so i have time to catch up with my job, before i start doing any work on it...I will be posting a list of things to do when I get a chance to work on it myself-just to let you know all the work I will be doing...and possible parts I may be looking for... one question on my mind... I know I need a new distributor- the original was an AC. I think an AB, AC or L type would fit in there, now the qustion to all of you-is there a big difference between them? should I just go with the original style...and to Jim Adney-as I have been told good things (by many sources) of your ability to resurect/rebuild these-which types do you put together/recommend... thanks -kevin somerville, ma '65 kombi '71 sqbk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
