How to Removable rear Apron Valance, Fit Wheel Studs, Battery Charging & Fuel Lines VW Beetle Bug
BEEFCAKE #07 Mods & Essentials - How to make a Removable Valance Removable Rear Apron, Wheel Studs, Battery Charging & Fuel Lines v Ethanol! VW Beetle Bug
As its winter and don't want to take the VW Bug out in the salt I've come up with a few winter essentials and mods that would serve you well for the future. I talk through making the valance removable, fitting wheel studs which makes a wheel change a doddle, better charging options to keep your dub alive over winter and lastly talk about the new increased Ethanol content in our fuel as it destroys fuel lines.

Hi all. In this Video I'm showing how I made the Drag Race or Rally style handbrake / Ebrake / Emergency Brake for BEEFCAKE, my Subaru Powered VW Beetle Bug.
Its relevant to many of the Aircooled VW family so should be possible with VW Buggy, Karmann Ghia, Trekkers and Things etc.
I cant take credit for the idea myself as the original handbrake I copied was created by my good friend Craig, who I cant thank enough for his help, support and friendship over the years, cheers mate your a star! :)
His handbrake was fitted on his record setting, wheel standing bug which used to run in the VWDRC some years ago.
Hope you find it helpful, enjoy :)

Hi, Beefcake Subaru Engine VW Beetle has gone drag racing at Santa Pod this weekend. I race my Subaru VW Bug Beetle Vosvos Fusquinha against VW Golf R Stage 2, Golf GTI, Turbo Beetle Vosvos and a Crazy Mk1 Passat Drag Car.
Id like to say a massive thankyou to Santa Pod TV, live and recorded footage of all the racing can be found there: https://www.youtube.com/user/SantaPodTV
Big thank you to Steve of SVWOC for help with the video files.
Another thankyou to the Bolwagen Brothers and their mates for putting up with me all weekend as I was a Billy-No-Mates, your hospitality and generosity was on another level, and great company Thank you, Bas*#7ds!!
Couple of errors in the vid. the blue 10 second car I raced is not an Audi or a Capri, it's a Mk1 Passat lol.
Also I call it VW Outbreak. As fitting as that name is, it's VW Breakout! LOL :)
