I get this today, a few issues of Rod & Custom french magazine from 82 and 83, with some nice vw-related articles. There are some bug-in reports, some great cars and some tech articles (how to drop the front of a bug with a select-a-drop kit !). If some people are interested I can scan and post the vw articles (Fabs if you don't have them ?).

Well not exactly at the swapmeet Straight out of the cozy confines of my bedroom I purchased a nice steering wheel for my '66. Well, I still have to pay for it and the seller has to send it my way across the ocean. But we'll consider that done and over with, for my own peace of mind: It's Mine !! I guess I will have to do some fabricating to make it fit, and I'm not sure if I'm keeping the Porsche logo, though it is different (in a nice way) from the leather patch on the puck. But it will fit perfectly  |

You might be right, after all you're the expert  But it kind of looks as if it's one piece. Well we'll see if and when it arrives. I will never be able to get it to the standard of your wheel anyway  |

I will never be able to get it to the standard of your wheel anyway Well i'm not really an expert but i took my horn button apart and the silver part on wich the logo sits really looks like the piece under the leather on mine, also the brownish ring around it would be the copper ring that is supposed to be chromed. Mine was dead so i painted it silver gray, not really happy with it but new chrome rings are just waaay over priced. If you ever want to put a leather logo back on it, i got mine on ebay from a guy in poland who's actually making them in skai (fake leather), and it costs about 1/10th the price of the repro leather ones i've found... |

I argued with him until he was pretty angry ...
I bet the madder he got, the more fun it was for you A couple of years ago at the Portland swap meet, I spied some 56-64 Beetle vent window frames. However, they were labeled as 52 Ford pickup. As a good swap meet citizen, I thought I would correct this error to prevent some poor bastard from buying the wrong thing. The seller denied they were for a VW, and was incensed at my suggestion they were VW. He too started to get mad. It didn't help when I pointed out the VW logo in the glass. Morons. |

Well Bug-In 34 swap meet was extra nice to me this year. I had a personal best is far as swap scores go. I can't complain for $20.00  Check out the breather tube extension, kind of neat, I have never seen one like this. |
