Apple, first he says the price is $25.00, then after reading on, he wants $50.00–or make a reasonable offer.

This is just bit much on the price point. These are not that rare and good restored German Bosch 034's are available.

AND....stock crap/parts listed in the hi performance adds. Shocked Twisted Evil I know there are many of you that think a widget thingy for a 36 horse is hi performance and i reckon it is over a 20 horse.but...that aint where it go's like all the oe intakes&carbs and other stock dead stuff. when i need a stock part I for sure dont go to the hp section. kinda like listing the seats with the wheels&tires.they doo carry your fat ass as the wheels turn, but there not wheels& tires. I wonder why that section aint full of dead steering wheels Confused and yes the way over priced almost dead ones too Wink Idea hmm flywheels should go there too....and wheel cylinders. and of course Vanna White. Wink Popcorn

What about things like the custom bumpers. Same concept as the T-Bars but for a 74 super beetle.

Is anything made to substitute the shock mounts?

Here's the be all to end all whines:

https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=2187988

This feller really expects he'll get a single bid over $150k for all his stuff. I see maybe $45k on a great day in 2012. And the main car he lists is the cheapest-valued.

I can't see anyone doing a package deal like that, regardless of price.

I bet he's gotten tons of emails asking to buy different plate frames or various individual parts.

Really? That seems way expensive for an aftermarket part.

dont think this is the right place at all, and im sure just about everyone here has seen this beast of a car, but I just wanted to point out an ingenious way to make cold air intakes for intercoolers on a bug.

Yeah, this should go into the bastards/abortions thread.

Pretty amazing work this guy did, though. One question: why go through that insane amount of work turning the body in like that? Why not just bolt on some air scoops?

I'm getting just a bit fed up of the number of greedy hucksters glomming on to the VW scene lately Sad
