It's probably the wrong size and has come loose. This is not a good place to make do with makeshift repairs. Your life depends on these brakes.

If it's a 68 I also need the VIN. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
