I purchased one of the rebuilt SVDA distributors with the 034 curve, but not an 034. What I got was for all useful purposes a new distributor that has my bug running like a champ! I look forward to years of service from this distributor from VWNOS.
I drive my '68 (with '74 dual port and 34 Pict-3 carb) every day. I certainly don't need numbers-matching parts, but for a whole lot less I am getting numbers matching-performance!
I would definitely purchase from VWNOS again! |

Back in November I bought from Marcel ( VWNOS.com ) one of his new reproductions of the VW Special Service tool #328D. He had an original steel base tool reproduced, and after a first attempt with minor issue, and a two-month delay to redo it again to perfection, his guys got it perfect! This is the tool that you can bolt the base of a 40hp - onward fuel pump to properly set the depth of the fuel pump diaphragm before adding the top half and screwing it down tight. This gets you the proper volume stroke of fuel. The tool finally arrived today and I immediately checked it's dimensions side-by-side with my original factory tool and it is GREAT! I bought it (at Marcels' very reasonable price too!) to give away as a gift at our local VW Club Christmas party back in Dec. The winner will be delighted to receive his Christmas present a bit late at our March Club meeting this Wednesday night. In the photos my original tool is generally on the left side.
I appreciate that this undertaking to come up with a quality reproduction of a hard to locate tool for the rest of us wasn't easy for Marcel, but I'm glad for everyone else that he did this! Thanks again for your thoroughness and I look forward to your future efforts!

Great service and fast shipping! I would definitely recommend using VWNOS, great communication. Marcel even called me to double check that everything was correct! _________________

I've bought a couple of restored distributors and other items from heimlich over the last few years. Always great service and parts have been as advertised. One of my regulars for hard to find original parts. Can't go wrong! _________________ Eventually, "we are what we pretend to be.’”

You can always count on getting a good deal from VWNOS. Shipping is fair and parts are great.
Thanks for another great part, Marcel. |

Recently purchased a couple of ignition coils and some other various parts from Marcel at vwnos, he has always been fabulous to work with and cannot say enough about his generous hospitality and great customer service! You will not be disappointed buying from this one!! _________________ I'm the humblest guy on this board.

I recently purchased 2 sets of T1 main bearings from Marcel. Be sure to measure before you buy. The bearings arrived in a timely manner. Price was fair (By todays standards). Bearings arrived packaged well, and looked to be excellent quality. If I ever need anything I will for sure look up Marcel. |

I have been restoring VWs as a hobby, since 1974 or so.... It has been a long time since I've ran across such a great resource for NOS hard parts. I was referred to these guys recently during my latest project.... Excellent Customer Service - VERY FAST shipping.... I will go to VWNOS.com from here on out! Thanks from Las Vegas

Ordered gearbox seals, gasket, bearings and grease to refresh the one in my '67. Parts arrived quick and in good condition. Thanx, Marcel! _________________ 1967 Deluxe Sedan |

Bought distributor from Marcel. He is SUPER knowledgeable and also hooked me up with VolksBiz for a rebuilt German PICT-1 carb. to match the distributor I purchased. Bug runs like new now.
Thanks a million. |

I am not in the habit of posting feedbacks, but this time I feel the urge to do so. I have a tight schedule for getting a distributor from Marcel and he went above and beyond to make sure I get the part on time. He is very professional and I am a very satisfied costumer. Thank you! |

Rebuilding the steering box on my bug. I found the vwnos website and ordered bearings, gaskets, shims, etc. Everything works and fits great. Shipping was quick too. |

Just recently picked up a new steering box, the one that looks like TRW but doesn't need to be gone through while still new in box.
Shipping was quite fast, and Marcel called me to explain the return policy prior to shipping it out (I guess some people buy and return because the new box doesn't fix whatever they're trying to fix, then get upset at Marcel???). Anyway, the box went in without too much drama, and only needed a minor adjustment to the top roller adjusting screw to take nearly all slack out of the steering system.
Overall a great experience and a good part. I'd highly recommend VWNOS if you need anything reasonably stock for your VW. |
