Hi

As stated above I am after a few pieces of a 54 shell in reasonable condition (or at least better than I already have)

Parts are

1. Rear engine firewall and parcel shelf area
2. Rear apron (doesn't have to be 54 but needs to fit)
3. Front cut including area around petrol tank/luggage area (dreaming for this I know)
4. Number plate light holder for W decklid

Potential buyer: Marcus Vass
Buyer location: Springfield (Brisbane QLD)
Phone: 0427 857002
email: vw54@westnet.com.au

PM or email or call ... I wait with baited breath :-)
Below is a picture of the fire wall parcel shelf area I am after.
Please don't bother responding if you just want to tell me to repair what I have ... I already know that is an option.

Thanks Marcus
Did see that but am hoping to get a little closer to original if possible. Cheers.

does it matter if the rear parcel area is not oval?

so still looking for area around tank or just parcel shelf and rear apron?

Hey Daimo
The new parcel shelf/firewall is very different in its pressing, totally different ribs, circular presings in it, seat belt anchors etc. I would just like a plain one like the original if I can.
Just the parcel shelf and rear apron. I will repair the rest of the area around the tank.
The rear apron can be from a 60's beetle I am fairly sure (correct me here if there is some difference I am unaware of) as I am going to fill in the exhaust cut outs anyhow.

hey marcus, i will try to get a few pics of what i have down here, but it will be yours for a box of beer if you want it! you helped me out, so now is the time to return the favour! its the whole upper frame. floor pan wentt to a friend a few years back but it fits on a box trailer from memory. i remember the rear parcel tray was restored on this one along with the pan and a few other spots, but i will get some pics for you. cheers, josh
