Started to refresch the 944 calipers the pastweek. Here the first one with rustpreventing primer

And here painted red... :)

Testing the connectingrods to the crankshaft with new bearings.

These came today, measured and machined to specs from Isokangas i Vaasa

Converting the -66 type-1 6V to 12V

 

Bought a Volvo 245 -82 12V rear wipermotor. The wipermotor is found in Volvo 145 and 245 years 69-83. Marked SWF.

Here the Volvo's wipermotor vs. -66 beetle 6V wipermotor.

Opened the two motors and changed the magneto and rotor from the Volvo motor into the -66 motor.

Goes right in without any modifications.

 Here is the finished products:

One 12V wipermotor for Beetle -66 and one 6V wipermotor for Volvo.... :D

Got a nice little package from Sweden this week. Because of the price one could think they were made in Gold... :)

Exhaust finished, new oilfilter and fuelfilter fitted. Everything seem'd to be ready.


Tried the first starts the past weekend. Will probably still have to do some tuning on the injectors etc....
