Hi all,
Recently purchased my first VW a 57 Splitty. Its rego'd and on the road but as you would all know its an ongoing challenge to keep them on the road.
I had my first little outing last weekend and found myself with my head stuck in the engine bay quite often (dirty fuel) finally got it home decided to take it off the road and get it all sorted so i know where Im at with everything. Also couldnt help myself and bought a 2110 stroker and some chrome BRM's. No pictures yet but will get them on soon. Looking forward to the whole experience and hopefully you might see me on the road soon.
Cheers
Scotty

Hotrod !! , nice one man.. can't wait to see it on the brm's . Oh , Welcome

Finally got around to getting some photos on here. Since my last post my new motor has turned up. Got it in and went for a quick run very impressed with it but now my box seems to be stuck in 1st gear but gear stick is feeling like neutral. Im thinking it is the selector fork at the front of box has either bent or become dislodged ( from reading info on here) Anyone got any other ideas??? Also got the wheels on. Hopefully get the front of gearbox off tonight after work and see whats going on in there.

I also put the POR15 fuel tank repair kit through tank why i had the motor out. Seems to be good but havent put any fuel in it yet so we will see how it goes.

That is one sweet ride

very nice man.

before you go to all the effort of box out get under and check front mount. if the little tab is off, nuts are centred in the shift coupling front and rear. I had a drama with mine and turned out to be rear shift coupler. It was a spare I had that was older style and rubber in the middle was torn so looked fine but wouldn't shift out.

send it back n get the po to sort it out.. haha

nice ride man, looks the part thats for sure!
