Thank You very much for the info,this car has been sitting in storage for the last ten years,some one had started a comple off pan restoration,the pan is very close to perfect,so I am going to try an finish the resto,then see what I have.Any info regrauding early VW's is most apprieciated.Have a Good Day.Ernie
Nice early 1953 V.W., ---- take your time in restoring it and you'll be proud when it's done. I have a 1950 V.W. split window which still have the black ong pant on it and still running just fine. Good luck in restoring your "53".
