Really all depends on if everything comes apart nicely or if bolts are seized or break.   If one of the bolts breaks on the spring plate cover you can probably add a couple hours.

does anyone know if you could fit a 16x7 wheel under the rear stock fender of a 74 super without problems (depending on offset of course)? the car' s back end has not been lowered.... yet!  What size tire would anyone recommend with this wheel?

How long should it take to lower or raise the rear of a 1960 beetle if you know what you are doing and have done it before ?

My beetle is to low to drive and I need to raise it a notch.  Thanks

Classifieds / WANTED Deep Dish Wide 5 Ansen Sprints
« Last post by rolls and pleats on August 31, 2023, 08:37:34 AM »
I'm after a set of Wide 5 Ansen Sprint wheels (slotted mags). Must be 8" or wider and Wide 5 VW pattern. Please see pictures for reference.

Maybe a long shot locally but I sold a set years back at the GCVWS swap and maybe they're still around? I believe it was one of the folks from Bunys and Bugs in Chilliwack. Please pass this on to them if you have their contact. Their phone number doesn't work and I've tried Facebook with no reply.

Air Speed Lounge / Storage

It’s that time of year again to think about your vintage cars storage! I have one spot in my insulated double garage ready for your vehicle, and there’s room for your extra parts if need be, For rent from October 1st to April 30 , (for my vw Community/airspeed members and friends, few days early or late for drop off/picking up is ok) Flat rate of $750$, this ad goes up on craigslist for $1000 Next week.

Located in South East Van, It’s a closed in garage that’s attached to the house so it stays warm and dry, and is completely sealed and free from the elements and rodents! I also have a small dehumidifier to catch any moisture, no one will have access to it except for me, my beetle will also be in storage at that time occupying the other side, perimeter is under video surveillance and bay doors will be locked and not opened again until April !,  preference will be given to who will not be in and out with their vehicle over storage, no one will be anywhere near the car while it’s in storage and I am in there about once a week to check on things, The side entrance door is located on the opposite side of your car eliminating any foot traffic near or around your vehicle, vehicle needs to have storage insurance, car cover, and the battery disconnected, thanks !
