Not cars. Not so much VW's, just fast ones. Will keep my kombi runabout (for now at least) and I'm keeping my oval and 36 horse stuff. Just... anything newer than 1956 is going going goooone. I hope.

If good I am interested in them for my 76 Kombi. I think they'd be the same...anyone?
Thanks!

Hmm I have about 3 or 4 pairs of heater boxes, surely at least 2 will be good. Cant say for sure.

There are 2 types. Earlier ones have the round pipes which seal with copper ring. Later have square ports that seal with a gasket (I think). A 76 should have the round ports like I have. If I have good ones that need no repairs $50each, price dropping per condition.

Nah these are late type 3 bumpers. Also, closer inspection shows front one to be... ok, from a mile away... I remembered that I cut the front one to fit oil cooler. Rear one is fine though.

thanks let me know when prices are available
Since you're a local, you'll have to drop in and have a look. I reckon panels will range from $50 to $100.

The oil cooler is a serck 235mm 19 row. Very high quality stuff.


It has JIC hydraulic fittings on it. I will include the necessary pushloc fittings for 1/2 inch hose. Similar to this





The wheels are 15 x 6, not 15 x 7 as i originally posted. They will fit all 4 stud beetles, type 3's etc in the way of bolt pattern. They will fit under the guards of a type 3 easily. I wouldnt like to say if they would fit under other cars, especially a super as the strut front ends might make things tricky. They may, they may not, im just not sure enough to say that they will.

OK, so a regular IRS type 3 looks like this (stolen pic, sorry)

Which is (usually) fine for normal use. It relies on the engine mounts to hold the entire weight (and horsepower) of the engine. If you have too much horsepower then the standard type 3 mounts can pull away from the body. Which is why I have used the swingaxle rear end. The frame 'horns' take some of that load. I cut the brackets out of an IRS rear ad welded them into the IRS. My only digital camera is my video camera so the pic quality isnt good.

Disregard that aluminium mount, that was for the berg kombi gearbox mounts (which I still have too). You can use them, leave them, or cut them off.
