Automatic Transmission

[old DKP driver]

Cool Video.....

It may be difficult to find a type 3 automatic trans & final drive these days.
1968-1973 yr models. this is called a 003 transmission.

The 010 auto trans is later and would require a modified 'flex plate' to bolt
to your type 1 engine.

What are they using in the "skate video" it may be worth contacting them
Good luck with your project.

I'm looking for an automatic transmission to bolt up to a 1972 air cooled engine, 1800cc.
I also need a transaxle, I heard the bus transaxles have more width than the beetle transaxle, Wider is better for my application.
I know nothing about them or what is involved.

I'm a newbie
Thanks
Bryan
