Hard to believe there is not a discussion thread about the breakdown of the different eras of 25- and 36bhp fuel pumps, modifications made and eras used in the Oval FAQ area. Anyone know for a link to the various eras and modifications to these pumps?

Please add to it with any additional information you may have. |

You are correct there is no "Interior" subsection.
I can add one if you know of some threads that have good summarys. |

I made a power point document using pictures from this site to define specific features for the US 1955 beetle interior. I provided this document to my interior vendor (WCCI) to make sure they got it as close to original as possible.
I would be happy to share it with the site if it does not break any rules.
Everett, I can send it to you directly to review it if you want. |

Yes, If it would help others, I can post the PDF on the site and add a link in this FAQ thread.
My email is below - thanks! |
