Thought i'd start to reproduce the old type 1 factory sump guard same as country buggy guards
was going to fabricate up few for myself just wanting to know if anyone else would be wanting one ?
easy to make 15 - 20 at the same time.
if any one was interested just reply

I wonder if they would fit on a wbx?

I read it on samba, so it must be correct.

Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!😂

I'd say i could knock them out for under the $100 mark
I'm thinking more like 80 bucks each

I was just about to borrow one and make my own but it is a lot easier to make a dozen or more ,so put me down for one, and maybe you should post this on the Country Buggy page ,if a lot of buggy followers are like me they only look at the other pages occasionally.

I had been hunting around for these some time ago as getting OG ones from the states cost more in shipping then item was worth.
Just today I cane across this thread in a google search!
Great Job yasdnil01! I would be keen to get one myself if any are left
