subwoofers in the parcel shelf bro ? hektik :jamie:

 

sweet dub.

 

cheers, scott

 

I hope not. "Free air" subs are basically just air pumps. :yes:

 

If it had a conventional boot which was the right litreage and sealed it all up it might not be too bad. But I doubt you'll have room to do this with an engine in the way!! :y:

Their is a box build behind the parcel shelf. 100% sealed. Although it doesn't matter because these are coming out since i don't need subs for a weekend car.

 

Shit they looked cool though :y:

lulwot?

 

Should of explained better, dual exhaust both consisting of dual 2" stainless pipes mounted on an angle. Not a first for a VW I'm sure.

 

uh wtf 1970 and efi? factory or aftermarket?

 

Completely Factory.

 

Why are these things always that yellowy orange colour?

 

My friend Scott had one like this that we called, "the Cheese".

 

Its more like a poo brown / orange. Will be painted but haven't decided on colour. Leaning towards beige?

holy crap, I thought - nah, it's gotta be mech injection like the bosch K Jetronic on most eurotrash of the time, but according to wikipedia:

 

Type 3 engine got a larger displacement (1.6 L) for 1966 and modified for 1968 to include electronic fuel injection as an option, making it the first mass production consumer cars with such a feature

I put some early model bumpers on my fasty the other day. I still need to adjust the front as its on an angle, but overall i like them so much better than the big ass late model bumpers.

 

Had to modify the shit out of the front brackets to have it fit and sit quite flush (without the big safety thing that sits behind the original bumper).

 

Let me know what you guys think!

Small update

 

Been doing a few things on the dub over my week off.

 

Dropped front end a spline (now 3 total)

Polished Paintwork / Bumpers / Wheels

Fixed Drivers Seat

Tidied up wires under dash

Fixed loose steering Wheel

Re-Aligned bumpers

Fixed Bonnet latch

 

So overall just a big tidy up.

 

After i cleaned her i took her for a drive and snapped a couple pictures:
