    Get it clean and tidy and leave it the fuck alone.
    Part of the point of it is for him to have something to tinker with. Doing conversions before learning basic stuff will result in another shed dwelling basket case.
    Turns out, far too much has been written about great men and not nearly enough about morons

              I also reccomend you trawl eBay/ amazon for the book " how to keep your vw alive for the compleat idiot" perfect book for someone who's red hot rearing to get in and have a go but isn't really sure where to start, what or how to do it etc..

              Which motor has it got by the way?
              Cheers, I'll see what the carb situation is like when I get it but I'll keep it in mind. I've had that book out from the library for a few weeks now and it seems good, so I'll grab a copy of that and probably the factory shop manual as well.

              As to motor - as far as I can tell it has the 1600 that it came from the factory with, but I couldn't tell you much more than that at this point. It looked completely stock standard but I'd have a hard time knowing for sure to be honest.

                  Yep, this. Calm down everyone. If I wanted to go fast I'd have bought something - almost anything - else. Perfectly happy to just cruise around making dak dak dak noises wherever I go and just enjoy the thing for what it is. (Having said that, they're not as painfully slow as people would have you believe). I agree that more chrome is in order but that's just part of the general tidy up.

                      Haha, I just priced chrome headlight rings. A mere $16. This is going to be good

                        Haha nice! I found a pair for mine (not needed but may get for spares) for around the same price, yet a chrome rear vision mirror holder is $45+shipping! :p Yours is a top choice for parts and knowledge mate - anything you can think of has pretty much been done or someone would have an idea on it which will make things a shitload easier!
