Subject:Re: Splittie with wrong size wheels
Date:Tue, 12 Mar 1996 03:19:54 -0500

I once had a '65 splittie with high-back '72 bug seats in the front.
What I remember about the ride was, every time I hit a bump of ANY size,
my head would slam into the roof. Is this normal for a splittie? Maybe an
indication of bad shocks?

It's an indication of no shocks, sounds like.

Also, on another splitte (don't know the year on this one), it had 16" (!!)
wheels. Was this standard on ANY year older bus, or did the PO get
fancy???

Please send me the name and phone number of the current owner, as these were
sold on barndoors,  also split window bugs (differnt styles)
