71-BEETLE

So foot off gas pull switch out. Foot back on and then it's 3rd

It's a column shift manual I should have added

Hi all. Wondering how to disengage the over drive gear on a crown. To engage it when the right revs are reached a dash light comes on. Take foot off gas. Till light goes out. Then gas it again and it grabs "overdrive". How do I get out of overdrive? If this is in the wrong spot mods please move.

Nope. Already gots me self a 1971 beetle and a 1964 beetle. If you all must know. It's a vs commodore ute. 3.8l, 5 speed manual. Hard top. Lowered. 20 inch rims. Tint. Exhaust. Intake. Pretty much the cleanest vs I've ever seen. And I know it's a Holden etc etc. But they are a cool car. And I've already got plans for my next car. After that. And you'll all forgive me once you find out what It is.

Hahah I don't plan on selling it to get thrashed. I'll be sure to send itvto a good home. And the car is most definitely not a lambo. Possibly one of the furthest cars from it

Cars for sale. All back together and running. My dream car is up for sale and need cash asap. $2700. With rego. Etc etc. New waterpump timing belt etc. Headwork. Cai. Check out cars for sale

You should darken your front indicators. Let em sink into the black bumper strip.

Heater will stay for now. I didn't do a compression test on it cause my testers at a mates house. But instead of doing just tge head doing the whole motor. It'll cone out once tge heads off and sent away for skimming and porting and polishing. Ordered new bearings pistons rings etc. Thinking about cams but not to sure yet. Also Gunna clean the bay up. Hide wires and seam weld.

Ones on order now. Be here this afternoon. It doesn't matter anyway. I buy my coolant and oils in bulk. Mainly cause I get really good deals if I do. Should my exhaust manifold have an outer heat shield? It's got one on the engine side but not the radiator side? This would be causing excess heat into the radiator wouldn't it? I will check the resistance. But don't know the stock figures and don't have a manual for it yet. Do you think I could post em up here and someone could check for me?

That's preety much what I'm thinking. Might even remove all carpet and get some floor mats glued down etc. I had a bride seat in my ksev. But when I sold it I said it can either come with a bride seat or varex cannon. He chose seat. So now I'm stuck with a cannon I can't be bothered to put on and no bride seat. So the cannons up for grabs too If Anyones interested. I've currently got the steering wheel from my 71 beetle in it. I like it alot but am on the lookout for another sports wheel. How do people go about short shift kits? Do I cut some of the shaft off and put a knob on it? Or is there a kit. Rims I do but not saying to much just yet. Trying my hardest to save for em.

Yeah I will. I forgot to add if Anyones keen on these rims. Post up here or pm me. They have old but still plenty of tread tires on them. I haven't got the coilovers yet but they are about to be sent. I used to have a ke70 that I stripped. I Will do it just gotta see where I'm comfortable. Cause I wanna have a little bit if carpet in the front I think. Not sure yet. I've also been looking at bucket seats. That's a little bit off yet tho.

Ordered k and n panel filter today. Exact replacement for stock filter. Will be here tommoro. Anyone got any other mods I should do in the near future? Relatively cheaply? Cheers

I asked my local supercheap if they had a part number for one. Got the old no not on our computer. Will have to go to auto pro tommoro order one.

I've Decided against a pod for now. As I'm a p-plater. I've been pulled over at least once a fortnight for rbt's were I've ended up outside the car while Po-Po go over it. I don't speedaround town or have anything wrong. I've never been defected for anything or lost points for anything like that. So I'm trying to make it look. As legal as possible for now. So I was thinking tho, a pod in behind the front bar like I said wouldn't be as obvious but would get wet. That's why I've decided to go with a better air cleaner. I've ordered a flex pipe for cai, so I'll post up picks of the set up once it's done.
