That's cool that C.B. Performance is stocking those shrouds. Has anyone ever seen a Puma with alloys and a built engine? That would be a nice ride. Is the wheelbase factory, or shortened? Be a fun project car and, for sure, unique. Not many of those on the roads... at least in So Cal. Where I'm guessing most 'em ended up, outside of Brazil, of course.

Inside I found.....

VW Greats #1 and Mar/April 1974

Hot VW's May 1970, January 1971 and June 1971.

Plus a special secret gift.... A NOS Santana Pulley.

Thanks Daniel much appreciated Smiley

No, I'm not.  The little bugger is all wrapped up nice and warm and is refusing to come out.  I have spent two days in hospital with Rach having small contractions, but I have been sent home to sleep.

Can I borrow your map Smiley  Did you give Wray the disc?

i have got a nice box full off very nice goodies!!!!

in the box were:

- one set off 42DCNF berg specials with short berg manifolds (very clean carbs, only the pivotarms were bent, but shafts and carbs are straight and all nice. cleaned them up roughly and they will come out very nice) the manifolds will need a bit more work to be cleaned, but again nothing major. these babies are almost bolt-ons.
- one CSP linkage for porschecooling
- one set off filters (these CAN'T come from Arizona, as they are clogged with dirt and mud. these are going to be soaked for days i guess
- one workshop manual/book for type3 with the best cover a book could have (i'll post a pic later) and this was a very nice gift as well.

all thanks to Zach, i told him to ship his stock to europe, that way it would be easier to go through it.  Grin
