Any of you early AC owners wanna put some spark into your Type IV, well
this is the kit.  I think I paid over 200  bucks for this module. Only
requires a point style ignition.  Easily mounts on the firewall and then
jumper leads to both sides of the coil. Sell it for $75 and yes it did make
a difference in mileage and the way the engine ran on my 79 loaf(may she
rest in peace). I'll see if I can find the instruction book.  The only
hangup is figuring where to hook up the tach wire IIRC.  YOu have only 4
choices to guess at.  Not sure if such a unit is being made anymore or not,
but back in the mid 80's it was the hot ticket.  also has an anti theft
switch. P mail for more info.  also have a bunch of  71 beetle stuff to
unload real cheap ie 3 fenders, couple 009/050 distributors, bench mount
engine stand,  new cofap steering stabilizer  6x9" speaker housings for
front kick panels etc.  Need $125 for all of it.

Vanagon parts.  Used power steering pump and hoses/pulley  $40
Rust free power steering lines(steel)
Used radiator in fine shape(aluminum)  $30
Used evaporator coil for AC(front of radiator) $40

everything is there.  $20
