73 Super AKA Bondo

What kinda wheels?




I know its a Super but I could not say no it was a GREAT deal.

Things I needs
Lower the front ( How to HELP!)
Tires.
Vents on the windows
POP outs.

Any Super parts let me know what you have.

I think you lower the front with lowering struts or something of that nature. Also who cares if it is a super fat chick. They need love too. What kind of vents you looking for?

Yea they all do.....! The black plastic ones with the louvers in them. Also want pop outs for the back windows.

Those wheels look like some of those BBS knockoffs that Western was making a while back. As for lowering, check out Topline's web site, I have lowered several supers, both late models and some of the flat windshield supers (71-72) with Topline's components. My 71 has a full Front suspension from them. I am pretty sure I have some of those vents around here somewhere too.

I will check out TOPLINE for the lower. also I will take some vents I plan to paint them black.
Thanks.

Oh I see now. Them vents. Should be pretty easy to find.

This week I hope to grind and sand on the car. Tires, cut the front coils and ride the FATTY.

Are the wheels 14" or 15"?

Here's those vents you need. 5 bucks

14" Rims. Also I will take them from you. Thanks....

The pop outs should pretty easy to find. Just get to bugga earily and get a good price and pick of the litter. If you can wait that long.

I need but i dont know if I can.I need to MAKE MONEY GROW ON TREES!.... I have so many plans. BUS and SUPER.

heat or clamp the springs down for a quick lower in the front and click the rear ! just a suggestion til you can buy the top line struts and springs

can cut them but i dont recommend it did it to my first honda and you always would hear the spring rattle since it was no longer flat on top

Here's a link to a forum for superbeetles, lots of info there......

Good site. TOPLINE is all on back order I called today. It will be a month before back in stock not only shipping to me is 80 bucks. What to do.

Getting all stoked for my struts and parts........I plan to work on it all day monday in the cold.

I bought a whole top line kit for my 74. I actually switched to the earlier 71-72 suspension. I prefer the thick cast iron control arms to the thin stamped steel arms. Topline stuff is very good quality. On my 72 the PO just put lowering springs. All it did was cause the suspension to bottom out on every bump since now it only has like 2 inches of suspension travel :/

Also, you can lower the earlier three bolt stuts more than the later two bolt style....

Up for sale make offers to me.....

sometime this week end ill be lowering the front of my super. ill be posting pics of the how to in my build thread here http://forum.georgiadubs.com/t9371-andrea-my-bagged-and-body-dropped-71-super-beetle even tho i wont be using coil springs itll be the same process. you just reuse the stock springs. and you may need smaller then stock tires. youll need to upgrade the sway bar to keep the caster and everything correct. but youd be looking at 3 inches or so of drop.
