VW engine

It's clear that this Beetle has seen some work over the years. Turns out the engine stamp indicates that it was originally from a VW Type III Fastback --- which would perhaps indicate that it's a 1600cc engine and not the stock 1500cc that 1967 Beetles had.

A fine mess

I've been logging a little more time on my VW project --- over the holiday's I've pulled the engine. I'm currently in the process of removing all of the bolts connecting the body to the chassis. I'm hoping to get the body off by the end of January. The mystery right now --- where to store the body of the bug -- without annoying the neighbors.
