Where should I look to find a listing of dealer option parts for a 1959 Sedan. Searched here but found nothing.

Would like to have some goodies but not smart enough to know where to look to find period correct things.

Thanks

There are Accessory Brochures in the Archives section from every decade that would be an excellent source.

Look through here. You will get a good idea of what was available for these cars years ago. Don't overlook the STICKIES at the top of each forum, they are packed with information!

You might pick up a copy of a "Foreign Car Guide" from your year. They are full of great ads for lots of drool worthy VW accessories.

You don't have to stick with dealer supplied goodies.
