Runs great! …but the generator bearings are not good. I can replace them fairly easily, and Napa usually has the bearings in stock.

Wow! Franz. We went in to fix some oil leaks and no we have a classic. Thank You so much. Can not wait to drive it home. Greg and Dana

Yeah it’s a beautiful car! Glad I could bring its potential to fruition.

The front brakes had some new parts, but you can see the passenger side was leaking and the driver side had a shoe that fell apart. I’m re-surfacing the drums now and we should have a 100% sorted machine.

This turned out perfectly!

Pun intended?  It looks awesome, what a beautiful preservation!

[Franz]

#65915

Yeah! I fixed everything, even the dome light works. I had to clean the original paint wheels and polish the hubcaps. It’s like a new Volkswagen would have been in 1963 …except a little beat up 😁.
