While looking thru some of the stuff I've got downstairs, I discovered that I have 2 different kinds of the steel fresh air tubes. These are the ~1" dia steel tubes which run on each side of the engine and carry fresh air forward to the hot air mixer boxes. The 2 kinds differ in the length of the little straps/tabs that they attach with at their forward end. The late ones have a long strap maybe 2" long, while the early ones are only about 1/2" long. I know that these started in early '65 but I don't know when the changeover occurred. The parts lists that I have are no help, because only the late versions are shown. The late part numbers are 311 255 327A & 328A. I assume the early ones are the same without the A. Can anyone tell me when the changeover occurred? -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
