I am trying to find (for someone else- so I could have the name a bit wrong-sorry) a Vacuum Cam that operates the clutch servo for a 1968 Semi-auto 1500 Beetle.

Even if its in the US or UK, just as long as we get one. This old bloke has owned his beetle from new and if he cant find this part then he will have to say bye bye to it 😢

Thanks.

Is that the vacuum reservoir that bolts under the rear mudguard looks like a catch tank
or something different that bolts to the clutch arm ???

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

T4Mel,
Your the person who e-mailed Lee? We've been discussing your situation in the General section of VWAR. I'd contact the guy on the samba that Bookwus posted a link to..bargain of the century aside from Michael re-popping the bladders!!!

Enjoy
Ctefeh

Thats an excellent tip on the samba listing. I'll let my mechanic know, thanks, and let you all know how I get on.
