Re: Cosmic Alloys

Thanks for the info. Never used adaptors before so I would rather spend the money and get a set I can trust.

Re: Cosmic Alloys

Thanks for the response. They are new rims and they are copies of the original Porsche rims that only come in 5x130 pcd. I don't mind the narrow look on the front, just wanted to get the rears spaced right.

Chromed & Detailed Fuchs

I remember seeing a B3 Wagon on Fuchs some time ago. Can't find the pic now or any info on spacers and anything else involved. I am from an Aircooled background and to my mind they are the wheel of choice, would love to put some on my B3. http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/yy332/johnnylongtime/B3%20...

Re: french/yellow headlights?

I have Chuffs old B3 with yellow tints and it has never been a problem with the MOT or the Police. I love the look and even put some on my Aircooled ride. I got mine off fleabay from 'Protect and Enhance', just do a search. http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/yy332/johnnylongtime/B3%20Passat/DSC00789...

Re: My new B3 Variant

Nice catch,

I was after that one as it was only half an hour away. People had real trouble getting hold of the seller. Good job for buying a sweet looking car and bloody well done for getting hold of the owner.

Enjoy.....Johnny

Re: SCUMBAGS!!!

Sorry to hear of the damage to your B3. I got up this morning to move my girlfriends 1965 Beetle into the garage as my Split Westy Bus went into winter storage last night, only to find someone had hit it and ripped the rear wing from 4 of its bolts, bent the running board and bumper. There is no way...

Re: 89 B3 Wagon - ** new pics and an update**

I know its hard work but well worth the effort. Is can be quite surprising how bad the paint can be but still be saved. I have done plenty of buff jobs on classic aircooled rides, some with og 40 year old paint and that can still comes up. Any areas that are really flat I use 3 or 4 grades of wet 'n...
