nice work. i like that.

i see you kept the type3 front beam and that is very cool, but how did you narrow it? the torsion bars are narrowed as well?

and  i have the engine lid widened as well by some 3" to the each side and must say that has to be the best mod off my whole car. seems to be a piece off cake for you, but you didn't do that or am i mistaken?

nicolas,
  Beam isn't narrowed, The arm's are narrowed.. 1" per side.. and the spindles are cut and drop 2".  I lengthened the lid, to show off the trans and make more room for the turbo setup...

Nice project with lots of good ideas, like the dual lid and the jacking points!
But what really got my brain into overdrive was the narrowing of the trailing arms?! Got any clear pics of that?

Well yes, I understand that, but why isn't the toe in correct in the first place? What change resulted in needing to extend them ???

On a car that has been extremely lowered with a lot of camber you run out of toe adjustablility on the spring plates It's the natural arc of a swing axle. The greater the spring plate angle, the more toe in you have. I'm not sure if it necessary on this car beings he raised the transmission.

Post by: PIP on March 19, 2009, 22:25:37 pm
I could only raise the tran's 1 3/4 do to the fact, that I'm keeping the lid on it.. With the car on the ground it had over 1/4" toe in..
 (The mock trans is a mid engine tranny)  :P The axles are flipped.. maybe its causing me some toe in..  I'll Double check it, With another trans...

Very cool, Pip! Ron was showin' me some pics, yesterday. I dig the engine bay access door that you made. GOOD STUFF! Silly question, but why are you opting for a Type 1 steering column... to get the steering wheel that you want? Or is there something else?

Can't wait to see it finished so I can photograph it. Really diggin' the 7R Fuchs on the back.


Title: Re: Squareback Cal-Resto-Mod
Post by: Jon on March 20, 2009, 16:00:34 pm
Thanks for the info. About the toe in, when you move the gearbox up the distance from the torsion housing center to the center of the diff increases, that's why you need longer spring plates.

Ok then!! That's what I was really getting at, as I plan on a 2" (or so) trans raise in my own '67. Now I'm prepared :)

Marc,
  i changed the column, So I could run the 3 spoke and early turn switch... And moved the ignition switch to the dash..
IMO it looks cooler, Then the bulky Type3

Do you know if somone has road tested a set of those narrowed trailing arm's? Are they just Mig welded... or are there more fancy work put into them.. like hardening?

Thanks for sharing you build.   Looking forward to updates.  ;D

Pip, I know this is your build thread for the Squareback, but I just have to say that this oval was one of my favorites of the entire weekend. You probably saw me checking it out constantly. I hope the drool marks came off. I think it just looks PISSED OFF. Love it!!

I also saw PIP's cars for sale on the samba as well.  Seems silly to say because it's so obvious but, awesome work, and awesome fabrication skills as well.  Your cars (Pip's) stand out, you definitely have your own style and not the same old $hit you see in the magazines.  One of the magazines should profile your shop and show what you guys are doing (if you were interested in that of course). We need more shops like yours in the Aircooled VW hobby.

I like the oil temp pickup on the dog house cooler.  Is that a regular cooler or T4?  I can't tell from here.

The other "tricks" look real good too.

I snapped this pic some 25 years ago, somewhere in LA.  Might be the same car......or not  ;D


PS, on second thought not. This car lacks the air intakes below the missing rear decklid eyebrow, but does
have a 356 grille (seldom used). 

That is unless someone lost the trim and puttied over the intake holes?  When I last saw this car it was
wired like a WW II bomber, aircraft wiring and add on gauges.

Here's the only other shot I have of that car....you're right the 356 grille sits lower on yours.  Just for reference sake here's one example
of an original dash.....kinda cluttered in my opinion.

The blue oval was bitching. Clean motor, never thought I would like the look of a belt guard! I heard you bought a '64 'vert from a buddy of mine. Still have it? What's the plans for it?

Been a long time since I've seen that thing !!!
I have a few pics of it in light blue. Grant Greven
Owned it in the late 70's. He was part of Wagenmaster
In San Dimas / La Verne ---- he chopped it
and narrowed the front end.....The SECOND one done!

Larry Rick had the FIRST narrowed beam !!!!

Grant's parents had a Romestch and he carried the vintage "original"  stuff to his look
Remember these were the days when only German stuff was available --  no repro,Brazil,
 Mexico, or China parts.
