[faux]

Hi all

Does any one have pictures of any 68/69 rear deluxe bumper trim?

Thanks

Jon

Don't know if I should show you since you'll probably source them before I get mine :lol:
I'm just too nice so here you go :mrgreen:

it might be the wrong year, but i prefer the later flatter squarer trim, like on my van

not that anyone cares what i think

but then again i prefer the repro slashed bumpers too...

go with what you like i say

There is a guy on the samba currently offering a pair of those pointy ones.

I was able to source a pair of this kind, I believe they are called "Clipper" , but I may be wrong.

You are a top man, I know where to get them from, not cheap though.

Tell Ant if you want, I'll keep you posted.

PS. Cheers Baron, yours is cool though.

those are the later model, like on mine, the earlier ones as shown in all the other pics are more similar to splitty deluxe bumper trim, in fact i think they are the same on the rear

clipper was just another term for deluxes used in the US market (possibly also uk, deluxes we'ren't that popular i the uk) vw had to drop it as it infringed on the trademark of a transatlantic airline also called clipper

I have got a set of fronts from C&C but the rears will be a few months. I think they are the same as 66/67 splits, the bumpers are exactly the same so there should not be any difference, just need Euro spec ones.

Shame you sold them on....I would have bought them.

i think someone on here had baggsies on one set but i can't remember who?

the fat style trim ie 68/9 is as rare as rare can be. I have some fronts and i ain`t selling for 500 smacker. When i get the rear same story. Sad story is that we were breaking a 68 bay deluxe in sa and due to the scrap metal prices the guys that live in the townships actually sold the ally trims for scrap....**** if they`dve known me then they`d be minted.......they actually sold for £10....i`m well shocked

Scotty, Isn't the rear the same as 66/67 Euro spec? If so there are repro's available.

i`m a bit fussy about repro parts on my own bus...more the fool me :mrgreen:

So am I usually but when it is an ally part that is very hard to come by I have to make a compromise sometime.. :mrgreen:
