Australia? International? what model/year?? It would be quite a task to put this together, but do a googly search, there are many to be found. Just ask more specifically.....

I have noticed, that most people like to suggest forum sponsors, or regular users, it makes our (vw) world go around nicely.

Classic
Vintage
Micks
Rod Penrose....

Contact John sherman. He is a nice guy and always after a chat. tell him what you want to do, and he will tell you what you need. just be careful, he likes to sell, therefore tell you all about the stuff he sells. just because he sells it, doesnt mean you need it.

I found him to be very good, from my experience. & yes, I have heard Barls story, so just watch yourself on shipping.

mate, I have not as yet. I need to get a front end rebuild (kit..) because im getting a lot of noises. it could just be the inserts in the struts but all the tie rods are shot, so im just trying to piece together some money and get the front end right, so i feel safe to drive it. brakes havent been done, because im trying to get it all done at the same time. rear brakes are good, but will need to be re adjusted once I do the front and get a wheel allignment.
