[QUOTE="GDK, post: 643305, member: 33918"] Sorry - if this provokes some strong opinions Im a new owner of a 69 Westphalia, inter and sheet metal both in good shape, and the bus is mechanically sound. This will become a daily driver. I'm contemplating, a disk brake conversion, swapping out the original 1600 and transaxle to something a bit larger ( i.e. 1914) with a freeway flyer mod to the transaxle. Just wondering how this is typically done in the VW community - are people wanting the all original or it's a personal preference thing From what I can tell It's all original and a surviver - The purest in me says stay original but... disk brakes and more power would be nice.
