*Turning off Lurk Mode* Howdy I really appreciate finding this email grp. I have recently purchased my first car ever, and it's a 1969 Fastback w/automatic. It's not running right now, and is awaiting the magic touch of Forest @ Lakeport Garage here in Northern CA. The Flexor(sp?) plate is making a lot of noise. I was hoping to be ready for the June VW event here, but not holding my breath. I know very little about cars. I know a lot about building and breaking computers, but never did the car thing (Lived in San Francisco my adult life). I am learning a lot just reading these posts! I would also like to mention a tiny score: a VW manual @ my local library branch for 33 cents yesterday with excellent drawings and exploded views with straight-forward directions. It was published by Haynes in 1974 [ISBN 0900550848] "VW 1500 & 1600 Type 3 1963-1973 Owners Workshop Manual" Previous owner also taped a schematic of the wipers inside the back cover. :) Any advice or recommendations are really appreciated! -Kathleen *Turning on Lurk Mode* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
