Please confirm you have a generator and not an alternator. If generator: do you get a charging light when the key is turned on but the car not started? If not you probably have two problems, a burned out bulb and a bad generator or a bad ground. Check your brushes if it is a generator. They should all be taller than the holder they are in like the image below. If they are worn down to where the spring is resting on the holder instead of them...

It would be nice if theSAMBA actually had a service that provided something close to the AIRS... The "Member's Map" is a freakin' joke, and shouldn't be a 'sticky'... and if you actually pose a question here about an actual engine issue, you get nada! But ask a question about your headlights?

IT may have been a Super Vee, a standard VEE has to use a swing axle and I don't think its possible possible to use inboard brakes and still be "class legal"....
Google search "VW Formula Vee" or Super Vee".........Tons of data out there and not a single book you have to buy....
The advantage of inboard brakes is less unsprung weight out at wheels, the disadvantage, you break a ...

I used the original metal parts and put the new bushings in the frame. The new parts I bought - don't remember where - had the same sort of junk stamping.

A good bead blasting and clean up wit get rid of that oxidation. You'll have to have the bore checked out to know for sure if it has another rebuild in it.

So I am finally getting to my first and onlt VDUB. Its a 71 Super. Only rust I can find is the shelf right behind the back seat. Has dents just about everywhere but looks like they should come out pretty easily with minor filler work.
Question #1: With the help of a come-a-long and straps to the roof of my garage is it feasible to remove the body by myself? I really just want to clean the ...

so he's selling his split eh?
i guess it's to restore the 51 std ragtop we've heard about.
he'd still have a split and he'd still have an original ragtop.
never thought i'd see this.
he's going over to porsche's perhaps?
color me shocked.

Today I did a mock-up of the 72/74 exhaust I'll be swapping my 77 over to:
I still have to clean up the mating surfaces, but I'm bascially ready to go. I even have the little flaps to go where the fan shroud meets the exchangers.
Now, the muffler is suspect. This muffler has been sitting for a very long time. When I pick it up, there is enough debris inside it sounds ...

Hi there,
First I want to say that I am new to both the samba and to air cooled VWs. I have always loved the VW bus and just discovered that my wife also shares my sentiment. That said, about a month ago I purchased a 68 bus and am very excited about fixing it upfor our family to use. When I got it home I really started digging into it and found some serious rust issues with the rear ...

I found some mention of a member with a similar problem here:
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1 68187&highlight=fuel+gauge+installation
there was never much resolution, though. While there have been pretty heavy engine mods, my 58's interior is bone stock and I'm looking to keep it that way. Still, the lack of a fuel gauge has been a bit of an issue. Especally as the...

What difference does it make what any of us would do with the paint? Paint it whatever color your little heart desires. Asking what color everyone here would paint it is pretty pointless.
