[44] If you are doing a major repair job and the heater channels of your Beetle are rusted through, these complete heater channels run from the front wheel to the back wheel and include the inner heat tube. These heat channels are a major part of the structural support of the Beetle and if the door sags and does not close properly the problem most likely is the heater channels are rusted and the car is bending in the middle causing the back end of the door to be lower than it should be. When you are welding in these heat channels, place a long 2 X 4 under the car and bend the car upwards with a jack under the 2 X 4 until the door closes properly, then tack weld the heater channel into place. Heater channels for all Beetles and Super Beetles from '50 - 79. State Year, Driver's or Passenger's
