Airkewld has devised a solution for Beetle, Ghia, Thing, and Fridolin chassis when the brake line stands need to be corrected. Drill out the spot welds on the old stands, drill some holes, and bolt on the new ones—done deal. Now with integrated mounts for a facet fuel pump which is part of our Chassis Fuel Systems here.

A remedy recommended for many Classic Volkswagen's is the clutch tube coming loose from the stationary bracket inside the chassis tunnel. For years, the hole saw, air chisel, was used to cut open the chassis and hose clamp or zip tie the tube back to the bracket. Now, you can fix it correctly with the Chassis Inspection Plate Kit. Cutting and welding are needed to do this job perfectly.

Red is back for a Limited Time Only!!!

There is a wing nut that, when functioning at its best, is a FIVE-out-of-TEN experience. This original nut would allow the VW owner to adjust his clutch feel to get the right amount of pedal to disengage the clutch. But most of the time, the OEM German wingnut is no longer on the vehicle, and a Chinese soft nut was chosen, and it feels like a week of not shaving your face. Heck, have you ever tried to adjust it when it was cold outside and you were twisting this wing nut, only for you to miss a twist, and like a propeller, it slaps your finger to the point of you letting out a Go#$&#)$)*_#@)_*$*it!!! Ya, we have all been there. We gave this trick little product a pretty cool name. Yeah, I am biased. We call it the Six Shooter Clutch Adjuster.

Available in Raw Steel, Powder Coated Black, Stainless Steel and NOW, Titanium!!!

The OEM Clutch Lever will be reused if possible. If not, a replacement clutch shaft will be supplied with the purchase.

This might be the greatest idea the PRO's have ever come up with. A VW Chassis, also known as a pan or frame, completely built and gone through, ready for you to build up. I know, right?

What would it come with and what do we do? Great question. Our clients come from everywhere on the Globe and finding someone to do the job right is getting harder and harder. So we came up with a solution. Let's supply our clients with a titled and factory numbered PRObuilt Chassis, ready for you to bolt on your suspension and transaxle.

What's new and what is rebuilt? Another great question. We take an OEM Chassis, have it chemically stripped and inspected. One it has passed the quality control department, new pan halves and chassis inspection plates are installed. The old gas line is removed. Your shift linkage is rebuilt with a delrin shift bushing if applicable. After all this work is done, it will be coated in satin black finish and crated for shipping. Each chassis will come with a title and a bill of sale.

Want the chassis seal installed? It's an option.
Want a fuel line system to be installed? It's an option.
Want all the seals, grommets and donuts to assemble the chassis? That's an option.
Want to Line-X the pan halves, top and bottom? That's an option.

Currently, this is going to be a standard Beetle offering for now with a future of Karmann Ghia and Thing to follow.
