hi, My name is Corporal Passetto and im a marine stationed in iraq. i own a 1971 sb with a 1776cc dp with 34pict and 009 dist. and right now it sits in storage till i get back stateside. what a waste of a beautiful car
anyways i was wondering if anyone had any reading material or anything beetlewise for me to look at or work on. all ppl have out here are superstreet and hot rod and camaro magazines and they are all garbage. id like to have some reading material that can stimulate my vw brainhousing group.
anything that would help me from missing my car would be great. thanks ahead of tme for all that read this. _________________ 71 super beetle w/ 1776 dp |

If you want, I can send you about 4 CD's full of VW manuals. In PDF format.
Then, you will be an expert when you get back.  _________________ Society is like stew. If you don't keep it stirred up, you end up with a lot of scum on the top!--Edward Abbey
