Looking for a few final bits to make my car 100% original. Can anyone point me to a source for an original '75 tool kit and shifter knob? Thanks.
the "real" original shifter knobs cost
a small fortune.
you can get them from porsche.
i think they are period correct though the originals were made of bakerlite.
not sure about the current spare part from porsche.
some other plastic? but correct shape etc.
otherwise go shopping on internet for a good used one.
you will be in competition with early 911 guys.
tool kit was nothing special by 75.
same as 74. cheap and cheerful black plastic bag with an elastic band around it.
its a beetle tool kit.
i think i saw that AA sell a repro toolkit with all correct repro pieces.
you might also be able to source a repro version of the whole thing from various VW internet parts houses too, but i have never looked? because all you are after is a 74 on beetle kit.
or otherwise search to see if someone will sell you a good condition original.

and i know mine is original and came with car all those years ago.
but maybe there were kits with black handle version.
some-one here would know.
