Hey Scott, did you ever finish cutting up that '72 Super? Your website stops just before you were about to cut into the area just forward of the doors. I was interested in seeing the defroster hose area. Any more pictures?

Alright Scott.............I found what you're looking for. See this link and replace the 29 with numbers up to 45.JPG.............
Someone has HiJacked My KILLBEETLE website.............
I can;t even add photos or edit anything.............and there's all kinds of Parts place ads onit so I will likely ask the Site place to pull my stuff off completely. Until I can put something else up in it's place I'll leave it though.

Thanks! Great pictures.
Geez .... what'd they do? ... hire Lilliputians to install those bottom hoses? I'd never get my arm down in there. Does anybody have any tricks to replacing those rotten paper hoses?

I you don't want to force your arm in there. I did, and found that the carpet holding lugs in the inside are small nails welded into holes in the panel. So shoving your arm down the tunnel is like shoving your arm into a metal rose bush. I don't know how to get the paper hoses replaced. A local bug shop in Shingle Springs (The Bug Doctor) said he pushes a smaller hose down through the remnants of the old hose, into the tunnel, then foams the outside of the new hose.
Anybody have any other ideas? Needless to say, I get no de-froster heat.
A 1300 watt electric heater on the floor boards for a half hour before I leave starts the car off nice and toasty in the mornings.
Mike.
