Red wine and auctions

Don't mix,

My daughter is on her L plates and was thinking about buying a car some time.

We were playing around on eBay and found a 1970 type 3 notchback with

2 hrs left to bid. It all happened so fast ..... it's really cool.....I know I've only got 10%......the shopping goes in the front......... I love you Dad.......

Any way here it is :-)

I did a bit of reading and the opinion seems to be to run it on premium unleaded with no additive, we changed the oil today and used Castrol gtx2 ( recommended from a vw forum for air cooled )

Eventually found the battery, still looking for the oil filter?

I will probably have a few questions to ask but for now just wanted to say hello.

Is there anything I really need to know in a hurry?

Andrew.

There is no oil filter. You can stop looking now :)

You got lucky. Take care of that Type 3. We almost bought one back in the '70's but the mark went up too fast vis a vis the dollar. We had to settle for a used Corvair.

I wish they had "L" plates on this side of the pond. Especially at rush hour.
