I'll be posting up some stuff on this thread from time to time. Some of it's for sale... some, not. At any rate, here we go.











If there's anything that you're interested in buying, send me a p.m. or e-mail (in profile).

Mark, what's in the distributors and dealers booklet? The bug with the bumper stickers.

1966 Volkswagen Type 1


John, that's a dealer list for the lower 48 States. I have one mint condition one and one that's a little tattered. I've had this stuff since I was a teen. Finally found it all. If ever find the box I'm REALLY looking for, I'll have an array of cool vintage European 911 and Type 1 headlights.

My favorite is my 1966 1300 European manual. I used to show that in my glovebox with my orange '66 with the original VW gray vinyl owners manual cover. The one thing that I kept from my car when I sold it. The buyer was pissed when he didn't see it in the car. HAHA!! it's in mint condition and I told him it wasn't for sale. Don't know if I'd ever part with it, either.

How about a British Racing Motors F1 GP 1968 V12?


Or an Auto Union 1000 Sp Coupe?


An Auto Union Avus Rennlimousine.

WTF, Lada manual in So Cal?

Here's a cool one, but not for sale...

[Rennsurfer]

WOW, Keith! That's really cool. Can't blame ya for not selling THAT one.

Neat stuff guys

before I moved to So Cal, I had a big box in the garage of some fairly neat old stuff, mainly original 356B and Super 90 Factory workshop manuals, the big hardcover ones. My dad's friend gave them to me when I was a kid.
Unfortunately, when I went to move the stuff, it was riddled with black widows, and I don't dig spiders.

I have a cool 4-cam Carrera engine workshop manual that is a lot of fun to read. Owners manual for my '67, and from my dad's old '59 Sedan.

I collect old Road and Track mags too.

Keith, if you did a reprint of that thing, you could sell a bunch of them. That looks like a cool read!
