Just bought an oval beetle on a 60's model chassis.. The whole wiring needs doing.. I should be fine with the lighting and stuff just need a hand with the engine side and ignition.. Anyone out there want to make some cash?? Throw some prices at me..

I'm located in Carrara..

Thanks for your reply mate.. Probably a bit far from you mate.. Carrara is on the gold coast.. Yeah i have found a coloured wiring diagram online.. Gonna print it out today and see how I go..

Hi

There are some wiring diagrams on the samba http://www.thesamba.com 

I find the early wiring diagrams to be very hard to follow as all the wires run parallel in the diagram, have look at a later wiring diagram from say 72 or later Beetle.

You could easily have your car wired as a 72 or later Beetle if your staring with a blank canvas. I wired my 73 Beetle as a 76 Golf with 16 fuses, side parkers, intermitent wipers etc

For a stock engine you will only need power for the coil +, oil light wire and generator light wire.
