I don't recall when VW's came w/ A/C. They all had heaters though. If you keep the heater boxes off the block, you can keep the heater. People tend to get rid of them though. There is a knob you twist between the 2 seats up front. Two small vents near the kick panels and two vents that blow on the windshield will kick out heat when you open it up.
OR...
If you have a girlfriend...lol
You could upgrade to what I believe was a "swamp cooler" if I'm not mistaken...

These things are pretty good little monsters off the line. My bro had an 1835 in his 59. Use to eat up 5.0's and IROC's back in the day. 1641cc, throw some dual carbs with a transmission w/ 4:10 gear, and you will have a lot of fun!! The HP may be low, but these cars aren't heavy at all. I could damn near pick up the front end of one.

Installed some JDM Toyota door panel inserts. These were made by Toyota and have a pearl in them similar to my center console.
This one kicks out a bit because it doesn't have the notch like the passenger side

Here they are on an 8
The VW's front end is just a beam to begin with. All your spring is in that beam and it they run vertical. The dropped beam with regular shocks was suppose to run the best but they don't really ride that smooth when they are dropped. I would have to look into those coilovers more. I don't know if they have you remove the springs entirely from the beam and run those or not. Even the rear has spring plates.

haha, new shoes arent on the car, that was just a test fit to see how much work needs to be done. i need to buy a front camber kit and have dennis do some work maybe and then i may get to put them on for good.
im rolling around on my spongy ass stock wheels.
