NSW rego papers are about as usefull as tits on a bull
ive seen that many mistakes on engine capacity over the years its not funny
at least 3 of my bugs have been way off with engine capacity
a mates bug changed modles a few times
one said it was a 62 1192cc a few years earlier same bug was a 64 1285cc....
H is 1500 single port in aus but im betting its probably a 1600 these days as the parts bolt straight in and are cheaper than the 1500 kits so most
mechanics make the swap when engines are rebuilt which after 40 years most have been several times

ok a question for all u guys in the kno out there...
is my bug an IRS or Swingaxle?
iv been trying to find out for a while, TBH looking under the car didnt do much for me.
iv been reading that in 1969 IRS was introduced. but was that only on semi-autos? or all 1500's?
its really got me thinking casue if i want to make the car handle better im guessing it would be better for me to have an IRS rear?
Help? Cheers all! bed time for me!!

IRS became standard in 69 only in the US on standard bugs
