I've got a '70 beetle recently turned baja. It's never been driven rough but for future possibilities, is there a life expectancy on the stock leaf springs?...
First mistake: "I took it in to my mechanic." :) There's too many resources available to pay to have it done. I'd bet if you post your location, there's...
Very true. There are plenty of people around here (I've seen 3-4 houses with bugs out front) that have and/or know something about VW. I live in Macon, Ga. 15...
