That's too bad..I've given-up on Ebay Germany, I've lost payments four times despite sending money via registered airmail. Never again...

Hey Ian,
Thanks for the nice comments. Send me an email with your address so I can send you that brochure of prices.

Thanks

Wow, that's bad luck. I haven't bought much but all of it arrived safely. Sometimes it took a LONG time though, like 2 months, to arrive. One time took 6 months.

I'm just finishing up my '71 Square. Here's a list of a few items I've put on it (don't know how 'rare' all this stuff is, but I know I had trouble getting all of it):

Exterior mesh sunvisor (aftermarket)
Center console with tach, seatbelt light, and cig lighter
Stainless Rear gravel guards (anyone have fronts available?)
Hitch (I got this off a parts car that was given to me. I thought it was homemade until I sandblasted it and found the words 'DrawTite VW Type III' stamped on it)

I'll post pic's in the gallery soon.

I'd be interested in photos of that tow hitch, I'm not sure I've seen that one.

I've posted some photos of the hitch in the type 3 squareback gallery.

You can *kind of* see the fake radiator grille on Dave Orozco's French '62 Square here:

Not the rarest, but I like my sleep-in extenders. I'm not the only one, either...

Ditto Germany and Italy. Lost over $2000.

Avoid buying anything from there.

What about the 1 gallon hubcap gas can? Are those not rare anymore?? Whats the deal with the white steering wheels for type 3? Ev? The 62 square in the 62 brochure has one. But mine doesnt??? Hmmmm....

Sun May 16, 2004 11:55 am

Oh, Greg, does Dave O still have the French 62 or did he sell it?

Sun May 16, 2004 7:02 pm

Another I just thought of....what about the acc armrest that mounts to the inside of each seat. Were these aftermarket or VW? I'll look for a pic. If anyone else has a pic please post it. I havent seen one in a while.
