Tinware.

[gas1man]

I'm looking for the piece of tin that sits at the rear of the gearbox in front of the fan shroud.
:shock: Unfortunately £80 is a little tooooooooo steep for me.
So if any one has one of these that has not been damaged and is for a little less
please be so kind as to pm me. The one below is mine and you can see is a modified one.
I would like the right one but does not have to be original, certainly not at those prices.
I do know they are difficult to come by.(can't find the thread)



As they say if you don't ask you will never know. Thanks and any help appreciated.

Just a suggestion, but to help keep costs down, you could get hold of a beetle one and transfer the "extension" over.

Thank oyu.

Get in touch with 'the gate keeper' on this forum. I think he has more tin wear than VW.

Thank you for all the assistance. Not for the dog house model unfortunately.

Hi - Mine is OG single port without the hoover, doghouse cutout, although I have marked where it would be ... second the attachment above as that's what I used on my 1600 twin port tinware

Looks like your tinware has been modified to allow the hoover bit to go through the tinware - is this what you don't want as you don't have the hoover and doghouse (apologies for double checking this )?

Hi Animal, I am in need of the one with the dog house cut out and the hoover section.
Thanks so much for the reply.

To everyone else that see's this, don't worry any more as apparently Father Xmas has been sent a letter.

Thanks everyone
