[COLOR=green] (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) i just inherited my fathers 73 2.0. i'm originally from San Jose, Ca. I relocated to Klamath Falls, Or. (southern border) and there are no repair garages for about 200 plus miles. I've been into aircooled VW's for 20 years now. I would like to do the tune-up and other repairs myself. Does anyone have any suggestions on which books to get so I can start the tune-up and valve adjustment. Also, are there any specialty tools I'll need for it. I have the space and time to do it, just not the knowledge. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/crest.gif)

The car is still in Ca. I'm going to let it winter in Ca. for now. It's starting to snow here. How do they drive in the snow or is that a stupid question? As far as pictures, I don't have any at the moment but i will post as soon as I get them. I don't know to much about the car except for the previous owner before my father. It was residing in Campbell, Ca. The owner was a professional skateboarder by the name of Steve Caballero. He is a close friend of a close friend of mine since the late 70's. he had it sitting in his front yard (for years) before he thought about selling it. I used to see it evertime I went there and always asked about it. he actually was going to donate it to charity if he didn't sell it, but I talked my father into buying it as he always wanted a 914. Now he's not able to keep it so I'm going to be the new owner. besides, he wanted to keep it in the family.
I have a question? How do I find out where my car was manufactured, shipped and what options it had?

you know steve cab?

damn
