			 Decided it would be best to start a new thread here in the Garage for keeping track of proposed participants for these. 
			
			
					
		Make sure to post your preference in COLOR for the Taco Plate(s) and Tuna Can(s) (BLACK or SILVER) ... BLUE NO LONGER AVAILABLE ALSO, post your Shipping Preference (Individual or Group) ... and if you want to order gaskets from Chris ... SEE POST # 91 for Tentative Payment Information Click Here Mini Deep Oil Sump extension for volkswagen aircooled type 4 engines. Increase your engines oil capacity to help prevent oil starvation. Fits all type IV (4) engines including Type 2 (T2) bay windows 72-79, Type 25 (T3) Transporter / Vanagon 80-83, Porsche 914s and of course VW Type 4's (Tunacan) Precision Machined high-strength aluminium. Complete with fitting hardware and oil pick up extension tube. Taco and Tuna: ![]() Taco (Silver) ![]() Tuna (Black) (Blue is no longer available): ![]() Tuna (Silver) (also available in Black) ![]() Hello all and thanks for your interest. Heres some figures for you; Taco plate £32 each for 1-4 £31 each for 5-9 £29 each for 10-24 £27 each for 25-49 £25 each for 50+ Tuna can £45 each for 1-4 £43 each for 5-9 £41 each for 10-24 £39 each for 25-49 £36 each for 50+ Shipping £8 for 1 Part £2 for each additional part up to 10 parts £1 for each additional part over 10 parts As an example if you order 10 taco plates and have them shipped to the same address they will work out to £31.60 each including shipping, which is less than the £32 for just the part. Or better still if i can make 25 for you then they will be £28.64 each including shipping. But for 50 they work out to just £26.32 each includng shipping. $$$$ - To give you an idea of the exchange rates - £31.60 GBP (the shipped cost for each taco plate if ordering 10) will work out to appox $50 USD. £26.32 GBP (the shipped cost for each taco plate if ordering 50) will work out to appox $40 USD. Hope this helps, if you want more info/prices etc just let me know. Cheers, Neil EDIT 1/22/13 - PRICE DROP ON TACO PLATES, NOW ONLY £27 each (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif) As of Feb 1, the count on Taco Plates is 31, @ £27 (currently $42.75) each + shipping* ... and the count on Tuna Cans is now 45, @ £39 (currently $61.75) each + shipping* * Not sure how the shipping thing will work yet. If a participant can accept a shipment for a group of buyers in your local area, shipping costs could be reduced a bit. I'd be willing to accept a shipment for the local Los Angeles/OC guys, then we can figure out how to redistribute them once they're here ... If you're located somewhere else in the country, possibly you or another participant in your area can handle your local region too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Otherwise, it appears that shipping would to your individual address at the rates shown above.
