OMG!!
I was just contacted by a guy in Finland, someone told him I once owned his newly bought 67 beetle... true enough! He wanted engine specs. My Frannie is alive! And WELL! Being restored right now!! Sadly, he painted it with a different color, but still.. the old girl is getting a new life :)
Looks like it's been passed around a few times and some rust spots had emerged. Only minor changes from when I had it, and the engine I built for it is apparently still rockin :) Just a little 1600 with a mild cam, and two single 40mm carbs.
I want to buy it back when it's done, LOL.
Here are the pics:
