For an economy start-up, usually all you do is file the points and gap them, see that there is current to them, prime the old carb with some fuel after running up some oil pressure and see is she'll start, then trouble shoot from there. 'Jonathan W.' can usually get an old engine running without replacing any parts. First get it running then only replace what is needed.

The stabilizer bar is a factory stock unit. It is installed to make handling better. It was NOT installed to rub the insulation off the positive battery cable allowing it to ground out and burn the car down. When you remove the cable to correct this, you could put that flat washer that is on the starter end between the cable and the lock washer in it's correct location. The next time you remove the starter you should install the top bolt into the starter before installing the starter. This is a great aligning tool. A piece of copper wire wrapped around the threads on the engine compartment will hold the bolt in place until you start the nut and washers. when the nut is started a few turns, it's easy to pull the wire out if you leave enough wire to reach over the fan housing. Remember this is an air cooled engine. Running it without the air supply hoses between the fan housing and the heater connections can cause the engine to over heat and self destruct. Hot air returning into the air intake on this engine is like blocking off air going through the radiator on a water cooled car.

@@CTmoog 67 and 68 Type 1 VWs were swing axle cars. The rear sway bars were introduced in 67 to fight a dangerous condition that developed during hard cornering where the inner rear wheel would camber inward causing a measure of rear steering that in turn caused a lot of accidents. Because of this the rear drive axles were redesigned and done away with in 69 when VW went to a true IRS rear suspension made possible by fully articulating CV axles. The 68 Type 1s that had the auto stick transmissions had the later style rear axles as well.

The old starter might be faulty due to the pinion lever being seized. If you have time, you can remove the soleniod and see if the internal lever moves. These starters were advanced at the time ( pre-engaged ) type. As they fired, the small gear would start to turn as it was thrown towards the flywheel. This helped it reduce wear on both gears. It also minimised any stuck starter like Fords etc, that only had an inertia type.

That mysterious suspension part is called a Z bar. It was added to swing axle suspension to help stabilize the car under heavy cornering. The way it works is when one side's wheel tucks into the wing (fender on your side of the pond) the bar applies a force to push the other wheel downwards working the opposite of a sway bar.

The starters remind me of the newer ones from like the Golf, Jetta, Passat, Polo, etc.
