I have six Bosch regulators available that have been tested and working. They begin the charging circuit at 1,000 rpm and stop when the circuit reaches 8 volts. The date codes are as follows: February 1958, January 1961, March 1963, July 1964, October 1983, and one with no date stamping. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974.

This regulator was manufactured in January of 1963. It is very clean. It begins allowing charging at 1,000 rpm and stops when the system has reached 8 volts. Their dates part # is: RS/VA 200 6/3.

No one else is testing these. No one else is correctly identifying these as Garbe Lahmeyer components made for VW in the early 1960 s. This one begins allowing recharge at 1,000 rpm and will not allow charging past 8 volts.

GL was used as an alternate supplier in the 1950 s through the 1970 s. It was common for domestic destine vehicles to receive GL. Ignition and charging parts much less common on exports. The casing is thick aluminum so the coils could be polished to a high luster. There are two both measure 1.2 ohms primary with secondary circuits at 4,800 and 4,900 ohms. They both still have the sought after b...

These block ignition noise that sometimes plagues car radios. They are commonly mounted beside the coil and terminal 15 and the generator at B+. They are NOS produced for Bendix Saphire radios. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974. I became a TheSamba member in 2002.

Here is an unusual coil. It has been cleaned and fully tested. It has an aluminum jacket. The butt end has a unique VW logo and VW part number. Primary measures 3 ohms with the secondary measured at 6,500 ohms. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974. I became a TheSamba member in 2002.

This coil is the new dual in several respects. First, the part number : ZS10E6/1. The 6/1 designation was used in the late 1940 s. The rest of the part number is old coding especially for a coil manufactured in May of 1964. So I am not sure of its application. The test results are unusual but do fall within acceptable parameters. Primary= 1.7 in his, secondary= 13,800 ohms. _________________ I ...

This coil has been cleaned and tested for proper resistance. It passes easily. It s a TE6B4 dated March 1964. Primary= 1.3 ohms secondary= 6,390 ohms. It has not been restored just cleaned and tested ready to finish or return to service. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974.

This pair of Screamer kit blue coils both passed muster easily their primary winding resistance is 1.3 ohms their secondary resistance is 6,300 ohms. They have been cleaned but not restored. I can guarantee their good working condition. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974. I became a TheSamba member in 2002.

These are a little more expensive than some coils but I have taken the time to clean and test each coil and recorded the resistance values for each one. No one else is doing this. Here are three original German Bosch coils. I have tested each one and they are with in spec. They have been cleaned before testing. Left: TE6B4 August 1962 primary= 1.3ohms, secondary= 6,400 ohms.

This coil is a bit more expensive but I tested it for proper resistance and it passes. It is a 111 905 105 H dated January 1973 making it a service department replacement as such it appears to have seen limited service. Most of the original sticker is still intact. Primary is 7.3 ohms secondary is 10,500 ohms. The coil is not restored just cleaned and tested. _________________ I have been drivi...

Know anyone with a Goliath? The brand shared quite a few parts with VW. Here are two distributors for those cars. The BR 16 is date coded March 1956. They have both been cleaned lubricated and reassembled years ago. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974. I became a TheSamba member in 2002.

Not sure what has been done to this distributor. I apparently never finished restoring it. It has been cleaned. The shaft is tight and the advance weights are free and moving smoothly. The badge is nice too. I will re oil the weights and felt and grease the points cam before it is shipped out. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974.

I don t find a date stamped on this one but it has many signs of being from 1954-55. I restored this years ago and tested it on my Sun Machine. It has a unpainted badge common at the time and a large diameter condenser. With wire cap clips. It comes with a set of German Bosch points installed. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974. I became a TheSamba m...

This distributor is date stamped November 1954. This is falls within Barndoor production. It is a VJ BR 8. It still has its factory paint finish, date correct condenser and original good used distributor cap. The Bosch caps of this vintage did not have the Bosch logo or part number on the outside. It had its advance verified when it was restored several years ago. _________________ I have been ...

This distributor is out of my personal collection. I have had it for many years.

This distributor was restored by me and then placed in my display collection that I took to shows. Being an R 4 it is uncommon and sought after. The cap is used and discolored but did protect the internals. The rest of the distributor is complete and NOS. _________________ I have been driving and working on air cooled VW's since 1974.

1954 was a pivotal year for Bosch distributors installed in VW s. There were three different badged distributors used for the Beetle and Bus distributors ran parallel. These were the first DVDA distributors. Prior to 1954 the distributors were mechanical advance only. In December of 1953 the VJU 4 BR 2 was introduced and continued only through January 1954. The VJU 4 BR 3 was next which was use...
