    [Wanted: Car] Beetle project/rolling resto

    My uncle is looking for a beetle project that he can work on in his spare time, more of a rolling resto than a full on project I'd say. He mentioned the words "for small money" so I'd say he's not looking to spend a fortune. He's very handy with a welder and doesn't mind if it requires minor...

    IRS Conversion

    I'm currently working on my oval chassis, welding in new floor pans, etc. In terms of drag racing is an IRS rear end of any benefit over a swing axle? Even if I don't decide to run IRS straight away, would it be worth welding in the IRS brackets now while everything is apart and the welder is...

    [For Sale: Parts] 3 x Porsche 356B Front Brake Backing Plates

    Thought I'd put these up here on the off chance anyone is interested in them, they are surplus to my requirements. Three Porsche 356 B front brake backing plates in good usable condition. One plate is missing one of the small tabs against which the brake shoe rides (see pic). This is easily...

    [Wanted: Parts] Horn button to fit a VDM steering wheel

    Does anybody have a horn button to fit an original Empi VDM steering wheel? I think the wheels were originally made by Petri so a button that fits a Petri should fit the VDM. Does a standard VW button fit a VDM??? The problem is the tiny brass grub screw on the terminal on the back of my button...
