December
brings us a new
feature with a groovy paint job
and an amazing father and son story. Owner Ray
writes, "My name is Ray and my journey
into the VW World started five going on six
years ago in the winter of 2015 when my dad
sent me a picture of this rusty ol' Bay. My
dad bought it, and a high-top, for $500 and
saved them both from being towed to the junkyard!
I flew to Arkansas to start working on it. "

It's been said that dropping a Beetle engine
is pretty easy, but what about a Type 3? JBugs
writes, "Vehicle engines can be tricky
at times, especially if they wont turn over.
If you are rebuilding an engine or just simply
need to work on the engine outside the vehicle,
removing it safely is a big step. Follow along
as we walk you through how to safely disconnect
and remove your engine using the correct tools
and technique. This is a great DIY project to
keep your Type 3 running smoothly and safely."

VolksWoman
talks about her '69 VW in
her December article. Lois writes, "I have
great trouble thinking of Bogart, my '69 sedan,
as a vintage Volkswagen. I mean, new body style,
big bumpers, IRS suspension, headrests, AM/FM
stereo with equalizer, Michelins, KYB gas adjust
shocks, mag wheels, tinted windows, and brake
lights bigger than a thimble. All this, VINTAGE??
Hardly. But, when listing their "vintage"
vehicles, lots of folks often include their '68,
'69 or '70 as an ancient example of the venerable
Volkswagen. I'm not arguing with this - heck,
50 years is 50 years - but since I also have '58
and '59 VW's, by comparison the '69 does seem
NEW. Every now and then, though, something about
this car reaches out and slaps me in the face,
sort of as a reminder that he's getting on in
years." Read
