That's so funny. My daughter and I looked at Mk3 Cabrio in Jazz Blue for her and we did an immediate about face without even talking to the owner. That color is killer with the trim and wheels on your 1303.

That is inspiration for my 1302. What kind of wheels are those? 4x130?

Oh, they look great. How hard is that conversion? Obviously the rear drum should be pretty simple.

Phat73VW, its cars are very pretty... Congratulations!
I have a doubt and I find that you can help me... Its red Beetle has the hood of the engine raised in the from above part, this aid in the much refrigeration of the engine?

SHE IS HOME!!!!!
The drive home was awesome!! It may only be a 1600cc with dual Kadrons and a little cam but it pulls nicely on very steep hills!! I have to give the biggest thanks to Jon and his son at TOPLINE for doing an absolutely AMAZING j-o-b with the build of the engine and the installation. It is sporting all new engine tin, new TOPLINE exclusive firewall kit and lets not forget the all new longblock!!! It purrs like a kitten and drives smooth as a factory installation. I have to go give her a nice bath now since she has collected quite a bit of dust at the shop for over a month. Then its time for a nice cruise down route 66 to fill up ithe tank! ENJOY the pics!!!

Very nice car!!! I think the color and engine rocks! Money well spent for sure. I hope it purrs for many years. Does it have an electric fuel pump or the standard? Does it have a normal small see through fuel filter or a larger metal one? What kind of HP do you think it has? Just wondering...

(I made a note to myself on the reflective tape for the interior door panel so it can be seen when opened. Nice touch!) You have earned every right to be proud.

I think that means..
"Do the decklid stand offs help in the cooling of the engine?"

Yes the rear engine cover is extended to improve the air flow directly into the engine and keep it alot cooler. It keeps my engine at a steady 180 degrees all the time.

Would be 180 degrees celcius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin or Rankine? This temperature would be of the oil or the temperature of the engine in the generality?
