Type 4 Corner News

We'll have the latest Type 4 news here. The newest three entries will be on the homepage and this page will have all of them.

  Well, things are still going on around here. The registry below has fallen to the side, as more pressing matters reared their ugly head. That is a project that I will be working on as I get free time, but don't hold your breath for anything in the near future. On a positive note, more and more people are seeing the 411/412 series as viable candidates for restoration. The number of message posted on the 411/412 forum at shoptalkforums.com has been steadily increasing. I'm hoping that more of you will join us and help bring some exposure to the 411/412 series.

  There is something really exciting happening at the Shoptalk Forums' 411/412 Forum. We are in the midst of organizing a Type 4 (and Type 3, maybe) car club, along with a 411/412 Registry. Of course I've volunteered to handle the club's web site. So, if you are a Type 4 owner, or just a fan like myself, stop in and join in the fun!

  It's almost been two years since I last posted an update to this site. It's not that I dropped out of the VW world, but just dealing with some personal and family issues, and concentrating on a few new projects. I will be spending this summer working on getting some new stuff for this site. I hope that you will stop in occasionally and check out my progress. If you currently own a 411 or 412, or you'd love to have one, feel free to stop in at the ShopTalk Forums, specifically at the the 411/412 Forum and join the rest of us. It's amazing what you can learn from fellow owners at this forum. Stay tuned for more information here at Tom's Type 4 Corner

  I've posted a few more pictures of Neal Anderson's custom 412 in the Custom section. He recently had the opportunity to try his 412 at drag racing. There's also a picture of it from Bug Jam. Thanks Neal for the pics and keep them coming. :-)

  Well, it's been a little too long since I've made a posting here. Well, to start with, I got an email today from Oldbug.com. They have just completed their really custom '73 412 wagen. The drivetrain is stock with an automatic transmission and a fuel injected 1700cc. Check it out and tell them that Tuna sent ya! ;-)

  I received an email today from Cliff Crate of Not So Vintage Parts. He says he's got a line on a '69 411, but he can't keep it for himself. He's looking for an interested individual looking for a very one-off VW. The car has been stored in a junkyard, with another car on top of it, so it has some roof damage. Otherwise Cliff says it's in good shape. Contact Cliff for the details.

  Another new feature here at Tom's Type 4 Corner is a feature on fellow Type 4 enthusiast Neal Anderson's day on the Goodwood road racing course with his custom '72 412. Check it out here.

  The "For Sale" section has been eliminated. The webmaster for type4.org has created a classified section for buying/selling 411/412s and parts on his site. You'll find the classifieds here.

  Tom's Type 4 Corner is proud to introduce a new look for the website. Along with the more modern look, there is an abundance of new information for the 411/412 enthusiasts. All of the pages are not done at this moment, but I hope to have them done soon. Feel free to let me know what you think of the new look.
