tortron 65,813 Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 2 hours ago, CUL8R said: I could be wrong but I think that all corresponds to the build plate. The door & door jam all the same numbers as the build plate - so at least its "numbers matching" Also I'd take the build sheet and laminate it or put it in a clearfile can you get a "birth certificate" like you can from the VW archives Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks pretty haggard in the original losting from the us Painted over lol, at least it’s not buried in bog I guess That panel is pretty sound from the underside though, seems a rust trap for lots of yank cars 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dabuzz 2,448 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 rad looking car - how much was it for all that rusty projectness? Vote buying a wrecked 300c and dropping your body over its chassis Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ProZac 1,138 Posted February 20 Report Share Posted February 20 That is, without a doubt, the coolest piece of rear glass I've seen in any car, ever. Hard. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mark_Fleming 315 Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 Firstly, I really like that hood on your car...like Cletus said, I haven't seen one like that either......and it never ceases to amaze me how rotten some cars can be that come out of America..... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CUL8R 921 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 Good job getting them apart, tbh that design is still common enough through the 90's. I'd be using a pottle of copper coat for reassembly makes the alignment so much nicer to do when everything is free moving. When you put the drag links back in, get the steering arm and idler arm both parallel to the chassis then worry about getting the toe straight. Obviously that'll still be awhile off before you need to get too concerned about any of that 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cletus 40,377 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 AFAIK aussie a body upper ball joints were the same small joint the whole way through, B body joint is larger. US a body changed to the same bigger joint mid 70s I've got some aussie a body arms with joints if you want comparison measurements Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigfoot 1,349 Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 For the brake pistons, thread a grease gun onto the caliper and hydralic them out. Messy but effective. Compressed air works if they not totally stuck 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
