WILL CONSIDER TAKING ANY USEFUL PARTS. Soz for the caps, just wanna make it loud and clear 😀

Got some parts now from my baja conversion. There is no way i'm going back to original bug, so selling off its remains. (69 1500 semiauto IRS Ball Joint bug) Got some 67 bug parts too.

69 parts up for grabs:

- 1 CHROME Very straight rear bumper, with mounts
- Very straight front bonnet. needs respray on outside, has chrome centre strip and chrome front latch.
- Very very straight rear deck lid, with chrome latch button.
- Front and rear fenders. Reasonable condition, no structural rust, is all there.
- Rear apron.
- Water reservoir (H2O storage for washing windscreen)
- Front nose
-Semi auto gear, including gearbox, vacuum canister and other hose network components that connect, + auto tranny reservoir.

67 parts:

- All glass
-wiper motor
- wiper switch
- some electronic box with NEW ERA written on it :S
- Headlight switch
-FUEL TANK
- 2 doors. left and right. passenger door in good nick with windows, missing cards, window handle though. Door buttons/nobs there. Same goes for drivers, cept in need of panel beating. However have a spare 67 drivers door that u can have to transfer the still good parts ova to the NON dinted spare door.
- K & L complete front beam, including drums and steering box

I gotz pics, will post.
Give me an offer on the parts. Am willing to trade for 69' applicable accessories or engine/IRS manual box components or wateva. Even if its cosmetic, or electrical, etc, or useful to a baja, or any beetle. give it a go, u neva know. Other than that, can offer me any $$.

Will bring replies and and rest this arvo or this evening.

The steering box? Well, it steers, When we pushed the baja up the hill of my backyard, it turned alright. Tells me exact testing procedures, and i will be more than happy to do it for ya. Its all new to me, sorry Nick 😁

Cheers seagull, yeah the starter works beautifully, think it will be a keeper. :P

ok whel you steered the bug around was there freeplay in the steering? as in could u turn the steering wheel a distance without it moving the wheels? was the steering stiff?

im not exactly sure how you could check it to be honest. because u can adjust them but as u tighten them up the steering gets stiffer and it wears faster.

do you know how to adjust it?

if u bolt on the coloum and adjust it untill there is no play in the box and see how stiff it is or if u can even adjust out the play. this will tell u if its a goodun or not.

hi Nick. Just tested it, without any adjusting, and shes fine, very minimal freeplay, without any major stiffness.

(thanx also to jace (manx_xtc) for some testing tips too)

Literally none. Like, when u turn one way, then the other, it kicks in instantly like, slowly for bout a mill then fast, but doesn't have that necessary 'free play' where jack all goes on. One way or the other, its movin. (well, from what i observe) didn't really have to adjust much either.

Its good to finally find a mechanical component from my 67 that actually works and is complete.

Nick, if you really want it perfect you need to buy a new one.
going through it step by step with chris there is very little play from what i can gather with the one he has
