I thought it was $10.24 when I read it. Maybe I should sell my hub cap for $60 to buy VWGirl a steak dinner?  |

Momentarily off topic here: Yeah, speaking of original, I just painted my overhaul-in-progress crankcase and heads an almost Bus matching blue...
You're right! Spray painting when you're bored is very therapeutic!

Interesting indeed. I wonder what the story is? Is it platinum or something?

That's only $175 less that I paid for our bus and my squareback combined...
By the way, what's a crossover pipe?

# 24 here:
http://www.ratwell.com/technical/Microfiche/t202310.gif
except without the heater duct on top of it.
The heater duct was 75/early 76 up to vin 2x6 2077 583.
[he put the line "mid 76 [from vin 2x6 2077 584 and 1/76 build date] to 78" in because earlier he had posted the ad and I told him what it fit....]
The pipe bolts to the back of the right heater box and merges the exhaust out # 32. |
