    Wanted: N/S opening 1/4 light

    Has anyone got a near side, opening 1/4 light. A frame only will do but I'm happy to take a complete one. I have glass, seals and and handle but the frame has been broken into at some point it seems. For a 68 but I'm not sure there's any difference in years. Cheers. Ash

    Heritage Brailian VW wiper motor into Earlybay?

    Anyone done it? The site says 68 to 79. Ive got it in my lhd 68. Had to cut the tab off for the mount near the motor and make and new bracket to attach but the only way i can get it to run is far left= slow, centre= off and far right=fast. No self park which isn't really an issue for me but I...

    Fuel tank felt?

    Hiya folks. Just rebuilding my 68 and wondering what you guys use for fuel tank felt? Can't seem to buy it new anywhere. Don't really know what to substitute it with. My thought is rubber will hold muck/grit and might fret the tank but then i suppose felt would too. :lol: Any advice much...

    69 RHD crewcab project for sale.

    I really don't want to do this. :( Anyway, I'm never going to get it done, I've a garage to build, a camper to finish and a wedding to pay for. So, As stated it's a 69 RHD crewcab, rocking horse shit really. It was imported from South Africa in 2009 and has been dry ever since. The chassis...

    Gear shift rod linkage bushes.......

    According to all the drawings, the bush with the metal ring and two dimples, is the most rearward of the two and the bush without the metal ring and the single dimple if the one at the front. So why is it my shift rod has two holes at the front and one at the rear?? :lol: :?: :roll: ;)

    Snapped front beam

    Need to stop coming on here on my phone. Making myself look a right tool :lol: Just loaded the man hole pic. Kind of self explanatory really :roll: :lol:

    Snapped front beam

    I can't quite make it out properly on my phone but the welds look to be on the rhs of the split. The weakest part of a welded area is the metal next to the weld. If you ask me that has had a major whack on the end plate causing the bolts to snap, then the beam to break. Not the other way around.
