Boris at Vintage VW had a stock of notch front/rear window rubbers with the channel for the chrome trim. I looked all over for one including overseas.

How good does that barny engine bay look.

Out of interest was the 356C for sale, if so did it have a price on it? It was gone by the time I got there.

Those heaters in the pic with the wrapping around them look like early Type 3 heater boxes to me, since they are covered and rear outlets are offset more than beetle ones. As for 36hp boxes, I scored a bargain pair of NOS ones on ebay last month for $90, so they still out there. Be aware you will al...

Toby, looks like its been in wasser at some point. The cylinders were rusted in the bores and the crank and rods had plenty of surface rust on them.

Wanted SYD: 36hp flywheel

Need a 36hp flywheel for my engine as the release bearing that decided to let go in my 54 has wrecked the ring gear as it disintegrated.

Anyone got one in or near Sydney?

Ben, Get a top kit from Chucks convertibles in the US, as well as all the header bows and timber you'll needs and take the lot to a motor trimmer to fit if you don't want to have a go yourself.

This baby needs some heat for the harsh sydney winters! Nah I am just rebuilding the top end on the motor, and they are missing, so I thought I may as well put them on whilst its apart. http://www.matara.net/albums/ovalcab/IMG00176_20090929_0624.sized.jpg http://www.matara.net/albums/ovalcab/IMG0017...
