Well geez.
Thought I would just post a post to inform everyone that I finally got the bloody '61 to move!!!!!!

It turned out to be a plethora of problems so here we go.
Firstly, the clutch had to be replaced
Secondly, the gear shift coupling had fallen apart, so that went.
Thirdly, semi rebuilt the engine, all good there.

For some reason I still couldn't get the car to move, and I owe a debt to Cam.
He was right on the ball. The RHB drum had burred all its teeth out and was leytting the axle run freely.

Thank you Cam

Cheers
Tnate

Could you post a few details of that wrecker - I'm in NW W.A. and the local wrecker has two Kombis and doesn't know what they are... If your guy knows VWs I might convince him to post me some bits.
