<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Russ must have called it right. You must have a '68 or
later front clip. Do you see signs of welding inside and along the back of the
front fenders? Also, pull the mat back on the front luggage compartment
and see if you see signs of welding where the luggage compartment tray meets the
firewall.</FONT></DIV>

sent you a 'share' thing on their site. <BR><BR>The pic's aren't good
quality, sorry about that hastily taken early this morning. Anyway,
there's a shot of the passenger side front fender with the fuel flap, there's a

it doesn't appear to be a cut out, and there's a pic of the vent line laying on
top of the fuel tank. <BR><BR><BR>

correct here, (unless your<BR>> inner fender has been hacked by a PO, and
the fender<BR>> has been changed to a later one). You would have<BR>>
filled up in the under hood area on a '67, not from<BR>> outside. If you
post up your VIN #, (or at least the<BR>> first four numbers, if posting
the whole # makes you<BR>> uncomfortable), and we can help with more info.

sounds like the line that went to the later<BR>> charcoal canister vent
system. Does it really go from<BR>> the tank area THROUGH the car into the
engine<BR>> compartment, or is it under the car? And is it all<BR>>
cloth covered or is part of it metal, the metal line<BR>> is surely rusted
closed by now. Pictures, (you can't<BR>> post them here, try Photobucket or
the like,) or<BR>> rather a link to them would be very helpful. In
any<BR>> event, I'm sure a better way of venting the tank can<BR>> be
figured out.<BR>> <BR>> Welcome to the Air Cooled VW, (ACVW) and the
