Sorry folks, but this event has to be cancelled and scheduled for another time.
Too many conflicts in people's schedules. More details to follow.

All-

64 bug for sale. $2900 obo

Great car, strong motor, shifts beautifully.

Brand new tires.

the bad -
An extra long Lug bolt knocked a brake spring loose, and the drum is on too
tight for me to fix.
Once fixed brakes are great.

Here is a link.

Is it a dualport or singleport? that makes a difference in the carb manifold
size, I have adapters to make any carb fit on whatever intake but its always
best to have as little changes to an intake as possible to make it run best.do

Hi All,

We wanted to remind you the San Benito County Cruise will be taking place
next Saturday 9/26.

We will meet up in Gilroy, CA at the Starbucks parking lot (At the corner
of 10th St. and Camino Arroyo: 6865 Camino Arroyo, Gilroy, CA).

The first 10 cars to arrive will receive a complimentary dash magnet.

We will roll out of Gilroy at 10am.

The Pietra Santa Winery is expecting us for wine tasting.  They charge a
$5 tasting fee for those who wish to participate, otherwise you can kick
back and enjoy the view.

Our lunch stop, Relax, Chillin & Grillin, has been nice enough to make us
a MPAS banner, which will be on display and have reserved the patio area
for us.

If anyone has questions, please shoot us an email or give me (Sean) a call
(408-476-4697).

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible.

--MPAS

If they are the light weight aftermarket ones, they are worth 5 to 10 each, if
they are original, they are worth probably 3 x that.

HI,fellow MPAS members and VW enthusiasts! I am currently in training with the
Luekemia and Lymphoma Society to run the San Franciso Nike Women's Marathon. I
will be running in honor of my dad, Daniel Provo, and anyone who's lives have
been touched by blood cancers. In order to participate, I have committed myself
to raise $2500.00 for this charity. So, I am calling on all MPAS members and VW
enthusiasts who knew and loved my Dad, and his '67 Yellow Panel Bus to help me
with my fundraising efforts. It is 100% tax deductible, and you can donate
online by going to this link:
http://pages.teamintraining.org./sjnikesf09/kprovo. I will even wash your VW if
you want me to! Thanks for reading this and no donation is too small. Sincerely,

I am heading up to Portland, Oregon for the Rose City Bug-In and will be
cruising with Scott Dempster's Airhead Parts/KGPR Coastal Treffen Cruise
- http://www.airheadparts.com/cruise.asp
<http://www.airheadparts.com/cruise.asp>

We'll be rolling into Santa Cruz on Wednesday afternoon, those whom are
staying overnight will be at the Ramada Inn in Santa Cruz.
We will head over to the Santa Cruz Wharf for dinner at the Mexican
restaurant near the end of the wharf.

We will depart from the Ramada Inn Thursday morning and will be taking
the 17-mile Drive.

Hopefully, you MPAS Volks can join us whether it's a few blocks or
couple miles.

I will be hopefully meeting a former MPAS member (Traver Wall) at the
Rose City Bug-In in Oregon as he currently resides there.

Hopefully...you MPAS Volks will get to join us on the Airhead Parts/KGPR
VW Treffen Cruise as we hit your neck of the coast.

Most offten it is just the brushes, They are easy to check before you take it
off the car.

minutes he did a quick test and confirmed that mine is not working, but is
fixable.

Looks like my Bosch AL82N alternator decided to give up its life. Does anyone
have a working used one they want to part with? If not, a good source for a
replacement?
