mi escarabajo 1973 estandar / My standar käfer 1973

[ferfre007]

hello friends, I am restoring my 1973 vw, I hope everyone's taste!

here in Paraguay it is difficult to have a German Käfer, as in the neighboring country (Brazil) also were made Käfer, and 90% were imported from Brazil

Greetings from Paraguay

excuse my English, I use google translator

Very nice work! If I had your skills, I wouldn't need to be so picky about buying my next car. :thumbup:

Welcome. Looks like a nice start. Don't feel bad, most of the restoration body parts we find here in the US are from Brazil as well.
Keep the updates coming.

Nice looking beetle/kafer. I've been wondering why the oil cooler area on this shroud is so big. Is there a benefit in cooling?

the oil cooler is further back, so the cylinder 3 is free of hot air

thanks, here in Paraguay a hard time restoring a German Kafer, because here there are only Brazilian bodywork, and are completely different!

that is the factory doghouse shroud made in Brazil, hot air exits through a round output to a hose , unlike the german/chinese doghouse which is rectangular

The original consists of 3 parts, I have saved much rust, so I put the Brazilian, but the engine is German!

excuse my English :D

I ended up being a classic käfer, I can go up as more photos???

[NO_H2O]

Photos please.
