I need your help in finding a couple of parts for my son's 74 standard beetle. I am looking for the complete front apron clip and the right rear bumper bracket. I can find these parts for beetles up to 73 but I can't seem to locate any for a 74. If you could lead me to an appropriate source I would appreciate it. Thanks.

cip1.com has one listed, front apron 68-77 standard Beetle $24.95. That was just the first catalog I opened. Good Luck.

Aftermarket aprons always need to be worked to fit right, ideally I'd ask around at junkyards. They may have a bracket for you too!

Well I'm a week behind but I am located in Virginia about 2 hours SW of Roanoke. Most all of the cars in this area suffer the same problem as mine which is that dreaded rust. On the parts I am looking for most all of the suppliers only list to a 73. Oh well.
