Wanted Running Boards
Wanted Shiney Running Boards for a 71 bug, They have to be a silvery finish and in good condition. They are going on a dark bug so want them to stand
out.
Preferably in Sydney. I have no idea on prices so just let me know what you want for them and ill let you know. Also i should be able to pick them up
if not will organise postage. Also wit prices maybe a few pics.

Try George at Classic Vee Dub he has a fair selection of running boards in stock.Barls got a set off him for the red peril of his and they look good.

would be plenty of old ones about...
but in good condition with no rust under the mat....??
swqp meets or buy new ones...
I bought some heavy duty Brasillian ones years ago..
and they are actually strong enough to stand on....
most brasillian ones bend if You stand on them...
One of the locals went to an aluminium shop and bought two aluminium seats they use in bus shelters...
Excellent shiney grooved aluminium just right for running boards...
whats involved in making the running boards I don't know...

the chrome type running boards are usually junk made in Tawainese so dont expect them to last

George at Classic as stated above would be your best bet. If you decide against the Taiwanese chrome boards, i have brand new Brasilian running boards
at $55.00 a pair.
