full resto

For four years i've been driving my 69 beetle. The time has come to give it a lot of TLC. Driving the year around in the Dutch wheather conditions didn't do her any good... My plans are simple, #make a pre66 look, headlights, decklit, wheels #Raise the front a bit, for more driving comfort...... #electrical stuff #brakes #interieur #engine revision, or bigger(dont know yet) #a proper paint job #but first tackle the rust I'm hoping to finish this all in one year, but on the other hand, what gotta be done must be done......... If you got some suggestionjs tips or trics, your more then welcome trying to keep you posted

helicoil

My Vanagon troughs out some white smoke, so in order to fix it, i thought first to renew the glowplugs. So maybe i don't have to renew the headgasket..... The previous owner twisted te glowsparkthread, so i have to put in a helicoil, for that i have take of the head. Than again i might as wel place an new headgasket, and a distibusion?belt. Than to think al this work keeps me out of the pub......
