Aircooled VW South Africa

that sump guard is way too cool. Love it.
Did you have it custom made or where did you get it?

That standard 181 issue.

Working 181s ones had it as standard issue.
It was an factory option for a civilian one.

Some people reckon they are bad. The steel guard leads to the alloy block corroding away.

Looks good tho.

Heres to you Tom!

And i hope that everyone noticed that Tom remembered his forgetmenots....

Motor with oil cooler and alternator stand fitted.


Suspension parts being prepped for powder coating.


Boxes from CIP1. Its good to come home from a trip and have this to unpack.


181 exhaust system.


Some of the bits and pieces in the boxes.




Who knows where this fits. Hint: It removes flat spots when the motor is cold.


































New 80 amp Alternator. Now I should be able to run my fridge while travelling.


All the Kubels parts sorted and packed away. When restoring a car you need order or you end up spending hours looking for some part.


The body is almost ready for primer. Its time to fit all the doors and lids catches to make sure all panels line up.

And something for SubaruBug.

Sorry Tom I couldn't resist but this looks more like a butt plug than a part for your 181!!

^^^ how do you know what a butt plug is?

lol.

Tom, the build is looking awesome........

I know what it is... but only cause you told me already.

Whats this pic all about????
Looks like a family portrate to me....

Hey Vader, its not a 181 part. Its a part that should be found on any standard 1.6TP Beetle motor.

And if you using something like this as a buttplug, I take my hat of to you.

Nice, Tom! So you can actually order an entire 181 through the mail? At a CNA near you, in 360 parts published every 2 weeks...

I dont use it personally BUT I have used it on some witless storm troopers and the odd anal seatcover....

Yeh Vader.

Now we all know why you wear that helmet, disguising your worn face. How much did you pay the script writer to add the fake see of you getting burnt.

We thinks you and your pink light sabre have been rather busy.
We thinks you are revealing your DARK side.
