Picked up a "never been used" original tent for the 73 Westfalia today:D All complete (and in bags) annex for the westy is just what i needed, and at $200 I was glad to give the lady the money:thumb It was kept in a shed and never used for 20 odd years, I'll make sure it gets some uses now!
Now my puppy has somewere to sleep when we are away;)
Anybody else get any bargains?

REckon you owe me a :beer then coz it was who waved that lady down in the street a few weeks back and gave her the details of the club.

(I'll settle for a trophy :D)

Well Done

Not sure about a bargain (but have been told I was not ripped off ) A Helphos search light which needs glass and a new rubber for $100. It is an unusual accessory, I'm interested in seeing what it will do :)

Also picked up a horn button with no cracks. Just need to repair up the old bat wing steering wheel (or buy one) and Bel will be even sweeter

Got a cooooooooool ride on beetle for a baby. $5!!

Needs to be restored - I asked Vollkommen Art, but they laughed ;) I will post pics when I have them - I need to put a seat onto it, and not sure how it should look.

Also picked up a couple of trophies :D

Yeah, I bought a solid metal visor from David, to replace my mesh one.. needs a little love, but a nice pick up anyway.

I got a set of Duel cannons for a $100.

They will be going on my EX Race car.

Also I got a trophie, many thanks to the Organisers.

I got a jack from David and a few other bits and pieces. Was thinking of buying the empty Hazet tool box for $120, is it a good buy?

The empty tool box had made in China marked on it, so doubly not worth buying.


BenettonVW - April 3rd, 2003 at 09:01 PM

Jen's right, it was a repro.


karmannghia60 - April 4th, 2003 at 03:22 PM

So what about repro for $320 (from the US) complete of course. Good price?
