I can't seem to find anything at all for 6v vehicles....
Also, where can I get a mechanical clutch? Mine seems to be okay but still - someone has to sell this stuff, right? _________________ Patrick Sloan

I have similar difficulties finding early-specific parts for my 67 12v 1600.
Although I hate to lose the smooth shifting and zippy rear end ratio of the early car, I am hatching a plan to change the entire drive train and suspension to later components. _________________ 67 Caribe 1600

That's a shame. My generator, starter, mechanical clutch and long neck are all in good shape. I just need a coil, points, ect. I could also use any spares. I had a hard enough time finding a 1600 longblock. When I got the car it was a 6v mechanical clutched 2L. _________________ Patrick Sloan

Pat,
What about the VW people? They have to have to have 6V coils and points.

there are lots of Bosch parts from 6v Beetles that will work in a 6v 1600...

I've looked around and that seems to be my only option.
