Hello all,
I've just aquired a 1970 VW Autostick beetle. Now this is the second VW I've owned, first was a 69 van, and my first autostick. At first I almost didn't buy it because of the autostick, thought it would be slugish and poor performer. I was pleasently suprised with the performance of this car and the fact that it was from California with absolutely no rust. I also inspected the vacum lines etc. and it has the original braided cloth lines? and the original canvas covers over the ductwork from the heat exchangers to the body. The interior is a whole nother story, lets just say I'm going to have to replace almost everything. I will be buying a digital camera in the near future and have photos to post. I am also hoping to find a owners manual for this car, an original would be nice but I'll take a xerox if I can get one.
Congratulation to your nice Autostick and welcome to this forum. :D
