We need:
Targa latches - I have the rebuild kits these are just too pitted.
Steering wheel center - good leather on ours need a nice center
Inside Mirror - Ours is great except for the silvering coming off the glass
Headlight Trim GREY - mine are cracked, someone gave me a sweet set of black ones
would love to find a nice set of GREY ones.
Outside Mirror - With markings ( IIITP-RT210 ) as shown in picture
Fuel Pump mount rubber isolators - our bracket plated up nice just need the rubber/w studs in them. Need 2
Accelerator cable return spring and Accelerator pedal rod - spring was rusty and didn't survive the derusting/plating process.
Right side 2.0 engine tin, 2.0 Air filter cover, Valve cover Bails mine are perforated, pitted.
We have a new windshield, would love to find a take out VW marked original one, but not much hope there.
Refinishing refurbishing as many parts as possible. Trying to get original, very nice/or restorable replacements. Reproduction parts are a last resort.
We set up the Casewell plating system and I'm amazed how nice these 50 year old parts are coming out. Even set up to replate/refinish seat track set ups. May offer seat track restoration service once this car is built. Makes me smile every time I look in the box with the restored/replated tracks. They're beautiful!
Please send pictures of what you've got!
I'll need a few more things for sure, will put up another WTB post when we get another list.
Will put up a mini build thread when the chassis leaves for paint in April.
Bought this one owner Creamsicle in 2007 to be our sons first car. Needed more work than we had time to do then. My son and I, with lots of help from Derek at Schweiger Restaurierung/Aircooled Racing 717-636-1226, are finally getting it done. He's 26 now and loves the car so it may wind up being a 100 year old 2 owner.
Thanks for the help! Jon
