I haven't seen those before.

No, unless they are Australia-only?
No kangaroo emblem so probably not Australian though. :)

Has anybody any idea what year kombis they were from or could they have been an aftermarket VW product ? Cheers

EverettB Tue Nov 03, 2009 7:55 am

I don't know the year but they should not be aftermarket since they have the VW symbol.

there cool

sorry to hijack but..
are there any Nuts which have the VW stamp on them?
I want one to go on one of my dreads :D

I believe some of the bolts used for the engine lid prop have a VW stamp.

Example:

That bolt would be a good way to work on your neck muscles.

I don't think there are any VW nuts, because they are a standard product.
all those VW stamped bolts are specifically produced for the Beetle/bus.
early beetle wheel bolts also have a stamped VW logo but offset to the edge of the hexhead, not in center.

A number of other VW wheel bolts have a small VW logo but I was thinking that was too heavy and the logo too small.
