WTB 15x5.5 VW Beetle rims 4 lug. 68-69 Type 3 panels
Sunset Garage - June 8th, 2011 at 04:57 PM

I am after a set of 15x5.5 Chromed or painted VW rims, to suit VW Beetle. Anyone with a set for sale, or some good tyres up to 65 series profile give me a PM please.

I would also consider a set of stock steel rims in good condition from a Beetle (Not Type 3 the offset is different) and hubcaps to suit.

Also chasing good, straight, rust free panels for a fully imported 69 squareback. In particular I need the drivers side front guard and both drivers side rear guards. Maybe these are hen's teeth?

Cheers, Dave

Dave I can't help you with 5.5's but as a last resort we can possibly help with a set of standard wheels & hubcaps. PM if you don't do any good ,if you need chrome moulds or type 3 parts let me know.(not body panels)
Cheers Les

the front driver side guards are hard to come by... are you after a 68 with the finger dimple to open the fuel filler or the 69 version which has a cable release the same as a 70on guard...?

I may be able to help with Rims and front guard but am in VIC

cheers Ben
