FOR SALE: Swedish Gravel Guards


Gravel Guards from a very early and unique design that was offered in limited numbers in the early 50’s in Sweden. Cast from aluminium or brass they are a substantial 5mm thick just like the originals.

these will fit on all years of bugs

I have not seen another set of these so nice to have something a little different:D

These are the chrome plated brass ones

Cheers :-)

By the way the the ones on the the bug are just placed against the car so when the bolts go through the holes will not show like in the photo.

Does that make sense :crazy:
