well im facing the firing squad if i dont start clearing out the vw crap laying around
ive already taken alot to the tip today and it hurts seeing usefull parts getting tossed out
so ill add stuff here as im cleaning up
im not really interested in posting stuff, some small stuff maybe but its more a come get it or it goes to the tip deal
firstly
this is my old turbo engine
im sick of tripping over it
its pretty much all there, ive chucked the flywheel and clutch out and the dizzy drive has been taxed but aside from that looks like everything else is still there
its a good AS41 block but thats really all its good for
the top end is there but the heads are pretty tradgic and the pistons are low compression dome top ones
it was just in a bug i pulled from a backyard it ran fine with a turbo on it till i blew the rings apart
still ran just had stuff all compression
IRS trailing arms and axles
pretty sure they're double spring plate ones
2 1/2" lowered struts
probably not worth using themselves but they have good boge inserts in them
swing axle back shocks
and just lots of boxes full of random late beetle crap
PM sent for the shocks ???

If those black headlight rings will fit a standard ill take em,
nd dont wanna make you search to hard but do you happen to have a glove box handle and or a rear decklid locking thingo with a key.
Also if thos hubcaps are going ill take three in good nic if thats cool
Just let me know, doesnt matter if you dont wanna search
the KYBS are spoken for
Josh, the headlight rims will fit, altho its a pain to swap them
ill see if theres 3 good hubcaps with no gutter rash there yours
do u need the whole glovebox latch or just the knob?
got plenty of knobs but the latches are the first thing to break
dont think any of my decklid latches are locking ones
I can't believe i went out tonight and missed this.... kicking myself. Sadly I cant travel down there though 🙁
I'll take that supercharger setup of yours if its in one of those boxes 😂
You dont have a spare of those accelerator pump jets for me by any chance?
Well my glovebox latch has got both broken, if thereis one with a handle and still shuts ill have it but if not doesnt matter.
I found out bout how painful headlight rings can be when i took mine apart for spraying.
And cheers for the hubcaps
Joel, i'll take the engine off you if it's not gone already, cheers Damo.

Hey Joel...
Im after a horn contact ring
a working horn... doesnt need to be from a beetle...
heater control handle things for besdie the e-brake...
bumper brakets, front and rear bumper?
and a few buckets and boxes or beetle stuff that was going to the tip to tinker with.
I think I have a fibreglass item for you in exchange. 🙂
engines gone to Damo
u still want those CB 1.4s as well?
Jason which part of the horn contact you need?
the ring on the bottom of the steering wheel?
horn and heater levers are no probs will have to see what i got bumper and bracket wise
josh none of the latches i found were any good
the brass ring one with the wire. 🙂
Okay cool, pm me your deets and will organise postage for the rings and caps
joel, i'll take the formuling steering wheel, really need the horn button..............been looking for one for years!
not sure if they already spoken for, but the trailing arms would be handy at the moment too
must be your lucky day daimo cos that green bin is sitting in the car to get chucked in the morning and i grabbed that horn button cos i was gonna save the badge of it
trailing arms are yours
Joel, thanks for the engine i'll take the CB 1.4's also i will ring you in a week or so to organize a time ti come down.
Damo.

yea im a shocking hoarder of vw parts
15 years of playing around with vws has left abit of a mess of vws and parts at my house, the sheds on the farm and mum and dads place but so many times its got me or freinds out of trouble and back on the road
everytime i chuck something out or sell it i or someone i know needs it a week later
🤪Do you have any headlight surrounds in good nick that you are interested in posting to Sydney? Or worst case dropping into town in Lismore. I have a mate who has a studio in there.
