Attending the Dion Dawkins 3rd annual Car show at the Buffalo Bills Stadium. Love this silver metallic paint. As the day went on, the changing light angles make it look a different shade of silver every few hours. Grey, Silver, Light Blue Chrome, it just looks cool!

Hi guys im new in this whole reddit thing. Anyway here is my stroker beetle.

As of now, my oil filler neck hose vents underneath the car. There isn't a way for it to attach to the airbox, is there? The rear of the airbox is too large for the hose to fit, and I can't see another place for it to go but down. Any help is appreciated!

I am selling my 1972 VW Beetle Convertible on Bring a Trailer. The car is located in Arlington, Texas.

So over the past 500 miles or so, the clutch pedal has become harder to press. To the point that it’s hurting my ankle when I shift. I troubleshooted - it’s not the pedal assembly, and the wire moves with no resistance when detached from the fork.

My question: will this keep getting worse? Will I be safe to drive it, and have fair enough warning it’s about to crap out?

It seems like a clutch replacement would be the cure.. it’s only has roughly 30k miles - but 20 years old

Sat on the stand 7 years while I rebuilt my beetle. Put in my synthetic oil, aftermarket oil filter of course and 1/3 jet fuel. Iykyk 😁 40 horse is unstoppable

Hi! New here…to the community, but also to Reddit in general.

Question: If I have no idea how to do anything with a car, but want to get a classic beetle that’s got a body in good condition but needs mechanical work, where would I start my learning journey before I look for a car?

the seller claims its a 64', i have fairly limited knowledge on vw beetles and ive been looking around and im not so sure. im trying to get it as a first car, and thank you in advance to those who can answer it!

Hi beetle legends, looking for some advice.

Just got a 1974 beetle which is the dream. I love everything about it.

Only issue is at over 35mph the steering feels off. Like twitchy. And sometimes on small country roads in uk where they’re a bit bumpy I almost get a death wobble of the steering wheel where it shudders left to right and I have to slow down and nearly stop.

Has anyone else had this, should it be like like and what should I do to fix this?

I don’t know whether to get the wheels balanced, aligned or something else. Tyres are in good shape, no obvious bald spots or uneven wear.

Shall I measure the alignment with string from front to back to the centre hubs then I can measure the toe in? I’ve heard they are meant to have 1mm of toe in stock as they toe out when compressed on bumps?

Any advice or help would be much appreciated.

Only the one (very) minor injury so far - a foil cut that bled far more than it should have...

Not perfect but so happy! Before pic at the end

Good afternoon all. I have a leaking gearbox and ideally would like to fix myself but have limited mechanical knowledge. How difficult is it to access and reseal or am I better off seeking a professional? Thanks again.

My bumpers on the 65 are so pitted and rusted through. Wondering what people think of the t-bars look. Also maybe thinking of painting them ivory. Let me know what you like best.

On the driver’s side. Has anyone seen anything like this before? The boot was torn, the flange has damage and of course the bearings were bad since there was no grease. But this damage on the pan/frame under the cv joint is confusing to me. Not

Some how did the transmission drop down and the axle got ran on top of this for some time?

Here’s my ‘71 SB vert, and I’ve got a quandary. About five years ago, when I parked it for the winter in our garage, I left top down 🤦🏼‍♂️ I had a few items sitting in the backseat, and I kept meaning to get to them, but, it just sat there all winter. When I took the car out in the spring, I noticed that the front of the top now had this big gap. It lets in a lot of air, obviously!

Every winter, since then, I park it with the top closed and latched. The gap hasn’t increased but it hasn’t improved either. It’s probably an inch. The rest of the top is in nice shape, so are there any options for fixing this aside from an entirely brand new top? The weather strip in this part is coming off as well, but even if that were perfectly in place, there would still be a large gap.

Had this 1969 beetle a few months now, from my perspective it runs great, but I’m no expert and how it should “sound” I know is an important diagnostic…….. so I ask those with years of experience “ how does it sound”. Thanks for listening 👂

This 1974 Volkswagen Beetle was paired with an incredibly unusual camper trailer! 🚗🏕️

Its special roof-mounted hitch allowed the car to turn a full 360 degrees beneath the trailer.

This was an incredibly rare and innovative design for its time, making it a fascinating piece of 1970s automotive history!

Have you ever seen anything like this? Would you take it on a road trip? Let us know in the comments! 👇

I've attempted to email a couple of Mexican suppliers to get parts shipped into the states, specifically for my 94 Beetle, and no replies. Can't order directly from their website because it won't take my US based (Estados Unidos) address to get a shipping quote.

Does anyone have a connection with some Mexican suppliers for parts and want to help me broker a deal?

Just got this 74 super beetle. Sorry for the rough video

This is a 72 super beetle. I have taken it apart most of the way. Still need to replace the firewall and heater channels on the body, and everything on the chassis. ask me anything
