Deb

If you can find your local VW shop in Tassie then go there ... However if you carnt find one then ring or FAX Vintage Vee Dub in Sydney Ph 02-9789-1777 or FAx 02-9718-8704 or Email me your list and will get it priced.

They will give you a forum discount and will ship you a free catalogue as well.

do you want Cal look or origional type for the chrome surrounds.

Deb

Are you restoring the car to origional or modifying it. If your modifying it most people use the Cal look rubbers. without the chrome surrounds

Ron its usually around 10% make sure you mention the Forum..

Well too late now, will do next time!

Thanks Dave. We have decided to go with the Cal Look. Have tracked down a guy in Hobart but have also faxed Vintage Vee Dub a list to see where the best deal is. Guy in Hobart says complete door and window rubbers might cost about $1200 so I am definately shopping around.
