I had never noticed this before, but the microfilm shows two different door handles.

Screws? Really? I didn't realize that this was an option. Does that mean that the steel panel underneath has different holes in it? Or do these screws go in places where the more common, at least to me, clips and rubber sockets go? > > and no wrap-around > >vinyl, but the carpet looks like the nice stuff. > > > The carpet is worn and faded, what do you mean with "wrap-around vinyl"? By "wrap-around" I mean that the vinyl sheet wraps around the edge of the backing so that you can't see the backing at all, until you pull the whole panel off. > >The antenna hole plug is still there; funny, I've not seen one of those in over > >a decade, and now this is about the 4th I've seen in the last 3 months.... > > > There are no signs of a radio ever being installed in this car, and > thus, the antenna hole plug is still there. > >>1) Does any of you know the exact lengths of the brake lines all over > >>the car?

The microfilm does not show the line lengths. I think I've used 88" for the long center line, but 89" would be better. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
