My kit from RebirthAuto.com arrived today! Way to send 2009 out with a bang.
-
- Big Old Truck! The lift gate broke so it was parked out there for about an hour.
-
- It’s Christmas in December!
-
- There’s the motor, some padding, and on the right is the diamond plate with most of the components mounted on it.
-
- Here are some goodies! Extra fuses, fuse blocks, an extra contactor, and the inlet port.
-
- That’s a lot of copper!
-
- Here’s the business end of the motor. Compare to the original VW motor in the next shot.
-
- Here’s the gas engine a friend helped me remove from my bug. He has a buggy that can use some parts from this engine.
-
- Absorbed Glass Mat Batteries! They are a fancier-pants version of the normal lead-acid batteries in most cars.
-
- Here are my lame mock-ups next to the real batteries.
Can you email how the installation goes. I have a 73 bug as well. Thanks Erik Bagger
