Man it's worth some money! Happich were period accessory makers, They were the one's who made the original chrome over brass, dual curve eye
lids for Beetles, that flat four copied. not sure what it's worth. but it is an original, not a cheap copy!

That would look good on my oval Phat.
Nice pick up, bit rarer than the cheese grater style of exhaust connectors. :thumb

It's an exhaust tip connector for a Beetle. A german made accessory by Happich. There is a few variants, and yes, the cheese grater version is
one of them. The main difference is that some of the cheese graters were labelled VW parts, but may have been made by Happich anyway. Eg. I had an
original Cheese Grater on my Beetle that came in a different box to that, but would be very similar in quality.
Rhett, I can tell you what they are worth, but I thought I did so?

I think you will find that your particular grater is rare as rocking horse dung.
Those ones were not made for that long because they didn't sell as good as the fluted model.
