Ahh the ill informed type 1 owners lol
Must did find out if this is still for sale...
SuperOwen - February 25th, 2013 at 07:58 AM
I don't even own a type 1...or even a VW for that matter. This makes me especially qualified to pass out recommendations and technical advice on the
internet.

Yeah. As 66deluxe has said. I would have to have it completely rebuilt for it to be able to comfortably do 50000 kms every year in my baja. Might be a
good base to start with though.
