My dad worked on VWs when they first came to this country. He used to take box end wrenches and heat them with his torch and bend as needed. Perhaps you could try that and make your own special tools. I have a box end wrench with a 10mm socket he braized into place that is used to remove the fan shround from a T1.

From behind the intake manifold. Wonder how many T1's ran for years with that bolt missing.

I'm wondering what bolt that is?

I will take a picture of a missing one tomorrow. Very Happy
