Hello
This is strange.
I have this Empi fuel line kid for Weber 48 IDA.
New in the original empi box.
But when i took a closer look, there was a ad on the inside of the box.
It looks like an ad for corsair lock?
Looks like they used the box for a second time ore?
Who can tel me more about this set and its box?
Gr. Raymund

Twin-cooler and sump...
Anyone have more info on the twin-cooler? They seem to be very rare, from what little I've found on them.
I'm told they mounted to the outside of the rear window vents...
1:4 rockers...
GT and GT Deluxe...I'm in need of a horn button decal if anyone can help!
Also after the hub and all the centre fittings for the woodrim wheel... |
do you have any more pictures of the twin cooler? |

Hi Caleb,
No, sorry. I'm currently living half a country away from my collection.
What are hoping to see/check
Kind regards,

What do these go for?
when i was a kid there used to be a 6V beetle driving around my suburb in sydney australia with one. i always thought it was awesome, plus it fits with a silly idea i'm toying with. |

Who knows, I searched high and low on google for an old samba ad or eBay listing or something and came up empty.
Probably a lot, maybe someone else has more input. |

This isn't the rarest piece that Empi ever made but you definitely don't see these everyday.

This my 100% complete EMPI Batwing Oil Cooler !
It is comprised of all original parts, no reproductions.
The two Empi logos and the small tin pieces for the ends of the oil coolers were out for polishing and plating at the time the photo was taken.
This is an older photo, it has been mounted on my car now.

Not sure about that particular auction but I've sold 3 or 4 of that catalog in the $100-125 range. |
