    I cannae do it, captain!

    Flywheel gland nut 🙄 I can't get the bugger undone, and I don't have any scaffold poles or decent gauge angle iron to give myself a bigger lever. So here's my potentially dumb question... Can I split the case without undoing this nut? I suspect not, but you never know. Failing that, any tool...

    I'm Thinking of an Exhaust Change

    Hey EB gang, While my engine is out I have been thinking about changing my exhaust. I currently have a VintageSpeed "Classic Super Flow" on my little 1641, twin-carb block with a mild cam (Engle 110 from memory). Nothing wrong with it, but I'm wondering whether to go for something a little...

    Devon Swing-out Cooker Lid/Table Rail

    I have a Devon swing-out cooker unit (first pic). When not in use it has a "lid" that has a metal strip on the back that looks like it should be able to hang on a rail (second and third pic). What kind of rail do I need in order to make that bit functional and where can I get my mitts on one?

    Electric Hookup to Split Charger

    Evening all, I installed my electric hookup a good while back and the Mrs asked me this evening whether it is capable of charging the batteries, too. I hadn't thought about that! What would it take? I have a split charger relay for the leisure battery so I wondered if I could plumb some...

    [FOR SALE] 1967 Beetle Project

    Anyone want to buy up my beetle? Bought from a friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend a few years ago and was a little too trusting. In short; the back-end of the pan and frame needs welding. I've lost the love, the time and need my garage back. Has been sat for over a year. Classic "when running"...

    Can't open the tailgate!

    Evening all, Unfortunately I can't seem to open my tailgate! What do I do? The key works, but the push button doesn't seem to do anything. I can't work out what to do from the inside either. Help appreciated, cheers George

    [FOR SALE] Slot Mags

    Up for grabs is my set of 5x112, 14" Slot Mags (Cobra Super Slots) complete with centre caps. I believe they're 6J ET17? Don't have the figures to hand, this is from memory :msn4: I'm gutted to sell them but they don't quite fit my set up (3" narrow). Should happily fit a stock/mildly lowered...

    Which headlamps?

    Later style headlamps seem much cheaper than early ones... What's stopping me fitting these to my '71? Was thinking I might take advantage of the GSF discount and fit some new ones tomorrow if I can. Thoughts? Ta!

    Help Identifying Seats

    I want to redo the padding in them and after browsing the TMI website I realised that I don't actually know what they're from, which makes ordering new padding a touch difficult! Cheers, George

    Piston Damage

    I had a valve spring fail which in turn shot the valve a little too far in to the cylinder, causing a little bit of damage to the face of the piston. It doesn't look too bad to me. The damage is not very deep. Would I be okay to continue to run this piston, or should it be replaced? The...
