Thanks Brian, this is great information. Oh yes, if I can find all the bearings, I will replace them for sure.
Thanks again,

Replacing front main bearing
Hello guys, Today the mechanic sent me the picture of the gearbox, as it was when he opened it. I have to say that we are very pleasantly surprised, the gearbox looks great and clean, incredible.

Re: Is this rear bumper original?
Thanks Mike, do you have any picture of the bumper installed? I am trying to see what is the correct installation. If you don't, no worries.
Thanks,

Is this rear bumper original?
Hello,
I need some help. I bought this rear bumper in Ebay, it is supposed to be the bumper of a 1952 4AD, but I have some doubts, since I know the VWs from the early 60's had similar bumpers...I hope it is original.
Deos anybody know? Thank you!

Hi Mike, thanks for the pictures. I need to do the same job, so I am following your posting closely. Are you going to replace the rings too?

Re: Starter cable mounting point 4A
Hello, I own a 4AD 1953 (SM 1500 roadster), that it has the original wiring, etc, it is not restored yet, but it is complete. I can take pictures if you want, but I don't know if it is similar to your car...just let me know if that would help you and I will be glad to upload some pictures. Take care...

Oh I see it. Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I don't have the rear bumper, it is just one of the few parts missing.
