The 1966 VW Beetle Forum

You don't really need to buy one they are online in .pdf format and downloadable. The obsolete air cooled documentation project has them here: http://oacdp.org/ All VW including watercooled are here: http://vagfans.info/EN/volkswagen/parts-catalog look for Type 1 (1200 1300 1500 1302 1303) Volkswage...

Lots of places here in North America, (google VW Beetle windshield ) but you should be looking for something closer to home: the shipping charges from here to there would double or triple the cost ... I'll do that. I'm aware of shipping charges, but there aren't any available sources locally. Thank...

That just about covers the paint job.........

Route it on the right side.

You'll need 6ft total, about 5ft from washer bottle to pump and the rest from switch to squirter nozzle.

I don't know of any '66 beetles that had full width basket weave on the seats. Don't believe these guys, the '66 interior (seats and door panels) was a one year only deal as we all know. basket weave in the center and smooth on the outer edges. Waste no more time with them as Wolfsburgwest has the c...

when i got my bug the interior was completely out of it and had no hardware for the rear seat. ive found the pivot bolts online for the back rest but i cant find any info on the 2 bolts that hold the bar that goes across that holds the bottom of the rear seat in place, i cant even find the bar onli...

Yes they are (and were) ....I owned five myself over the years, and there's two still on the road in my local area ...both Super Beetles. Couple of questions: been googling around the various source sites for parts, etc., and I haven't been able to find a supplier who sells "correct" seat...

Correct color is:
seat frame L 43 grey-black or SL43 grey-black.

Wolfsburgwest has it in aerosols or I ahve the correct paint codes to mix.

If I was to be looking for a set of "correct" front seats for my 66, which other year's seats would fit? Mine currently has a "wrong" passenger seat for the driver seat, and I think also a wrong seat for the passenger seat. My passenger seat has a pull up lever (broken) on the t...

-J is the VW Mexico part number. The one DC listed will work fine assuming a stock 1300 with a 28pci carb. What engine and carb do you have? If they're aftermarket / later, the intake manifold you're looking for may be different. -J is specific to 1300, K was correct for 1500 engines. I have lots o...

How does this bushing go on the shift rod and ,should it be inserted into the hanger? Yes it needs to be put into the hanger with the metal ring too. Put it in place and them slide the shift rod into place with a touch of grease. get a helper to guide the end of the shaft if you can. I was dreading...

I am trying to locate the same holes. The arrows in that picture look to be pointing to where the seat back bolts to. Is that right? There seems to be a bolt the same size as a seat belt bolt that looks like it will work but it is on the floor. Please advise. Thanks. Ben The seat belt holes and sea...

Wow that's my photo of my car! must have come off Samba - but it is there to be shared of course.

Hi, I just bought a 66 Bug and the previous owner converted it to 12v. It has some aftermarket plastic 12v turn signals on the front fenders which I hate, ( plastic chrome) yuck. My question is will the original Hella lens and metal chrome housing fit over that new 12v set up? Thanks for your help....
