Seems as thought beetle fires aren't vary uncommon,when my '70 autostick bug caught fire (fuel line to carb came loose),the poor engine was toast,along with the paint on the decklid & upper shell. Grrr,the fire extinguisher went out so I had to pile dirt to save her.

I fixed her up the next week though
note to self:
add gloves and a flashlight to the toolbox list

Dude that was one of the sweet things about the oB. Throw a little dirt on the engine fire, a little tinkering here and there and badda boom, you're running the next week!

And uh, we'll have to go "White Tie" at the Tally GTG. I still plan on coming over. Maybe before the TOD!
