Just came across this bunch across the water that make 23 window roof sections for splitties. I have bought some stuff off these guys and the quality is amazing. I know Creative Engineering were looking at doing these also.

They also make a repro rear valvnces for splitties that are reasonably priced:-



Roy at classicvw(Pacific), maybe you should think about slipping some of this stuff into your next container!!

Cheers

Do you know if repro glass is available or do you have to find original glass (which would be kinda tough)?

I don't know about these. Part of me thinbks they're great, another part of me can see a whole lot of non-original splits trying to be passed off as Samba's. I can understand people restoring / replacing rusty parts, but don't think it's right that they'ed go in something not original. Whilst it would look great, it's a bit like putting stickers on your Commodore and calling it a Brock.

All you need now are some Brazilian bay rear corners, or some of these from VW relics in the UK:-
