I am in search of original paint parts to complete the look im going for. I thought id give it a try.Parts im looking for are for a 1957 Oval. And i think Boronia Brown was used from 56-59. Or if someone is selling a complete car, i may be interested as well.
Parts Needed:
-Looking for a Left and Right set of original paint Boronia Brown taillight housings.Whether you have one or the set, let me know.
-Also looking for an original paint W Decklid. I just dicovered the decklid on the bug is not original to the car.
-If you have any fenders in good condition as well, id be interested. Main ones needed are a front left and a rear right.
-I am also looking for an original right side front door card with good leatherette.
Parts dont have to be perfect as they are going on a patina oval.So of they have surface rust or minor dents, thats fine.Let me know what you have. ANYTHING!!

What about Boronia Brown, did that color go as early as 57??

The colour is called pairie beige like my 57 oval, very rare in Australia

HotVolkswagenz ·

Got any pictures of your oval??

HotVolkswagenz ·

Manny,
Is this the colour you were after?

I don't know what it is called.
Seems a bit dark for Surfers White. - I guess that leaves Boronia brown as the only other possibility.

HotVolkswagenz ·

Thats the color!!!
The closest match i was able to make to IN2VWS website was Baronia Brown as well.
Damn that oval made me drool.
For Sale?
Any spare parts??

Thats Boronia brown, I had a car that I pulled apart afew years ago and it had all the books and papers with it, on a copy of purchase etc it says Boronia brown.
I guess being so faded they start to look like a dirty cream,or off white. 😂

Long gone sorry.

Finally found one. The other is in the shed somewhere. The colour is a bit darker than the others (poor car spent 10 years out in the weather in Albury)
I'd be happy to swap with another set of housings, as I'll be repainting the whole car anyway. Let me know if you want to swap.
I have got some other spare oval bits, PM me a list of what you are after.
As for sellng the car, the thought crossed my mind the other day to sell it - PM me.
