The cover for the front side (not the pulley end) of the alternator.

You're welcome! I don't plan on getting rid of it anytime soon I'd sure like that back seat to be brown to match my other seats but it isn't that major of a concern to me at the moment.

Can you do me a HUGE favor? Can I have a scan or picture of that whole page? My bus originally came from Portland, WA and I haven't been able to fine a complete listing of the VW dealerships in Washington from the 70's. That page might have where my bus came from!! |
Sorry the first one was blurry 
And the seats that were requested
So I washed Paddy today and threw CLR on the surface rust spots and it turned the car from a 50 footer to a 40 footer  I can't wait until it gets warmer out to throw some rubbing compound on her.

My mom actually found this in the attic yesterday morning when she was cleaning it out...coincidence?
Mine came from Hanson VW in Olympia WA
Sweet! Also it came with a nice really old Bentley Shop Manual. I think from 1978....

I think I remember seeing it now. I have a friend that I keep looking for a bus for, I guess I missed that steal! Of course change out the fuel lines and then buff out that paint. I bet she shines right up!
