I don't know too many details, but it sounds like a good deal for someone so inclined. It's most of the parts (bodies, seats, engines, transmissions, etc.) to build two cars, but one transmission was pronounced not worth rebuilding by a local shop and one engine is condition unknown. (Second car was bought for it's transmission but turned out to be in better condition than the first car so became the donee instead of the donor.) Both cars are in pieces; one engine is believed to be good (but from some other source originally, probably not correct for either car). I don't know what years, but believe they are all CA smog exempt (so before 1976). Located in Torrance, CA (approx 20 miles SSW of Los Angeles). A friend of mine's son started out to build a bug for himself, but as with so many projects ran out of time and enthusiasm. Now my friend wants his driveway and garage back! Son will be in town next week, and has been ordered to make arrangements by the end of the week. If not, they are going to the junk yard! If this sounds like something you would be interested in, please email Dan at VW at ingold.org -- Randall From kingseim at earthlink.net Tue Jun 30 08:01:16 2009 From: kingseim at earthlink.net (John Seim) Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2009 07:01:16 -0700 Subject: [Autojumble] 500/550 x 16 tire sought Message-ID: Looking for a 500/550 x 16 tire, to use so that can roll around a Singer.
