I would like to see what a '67 Bug/sedan/convertible tool kit looks like. I am not sure about the screwdriver handle and hubcap puller. Thanks for any photos. |

Gallery has Bus and Squareback kits, though you can't see your details; I'm not sure if the Bugs were different.

Have you tried the "Owners Manuals" thru the "Technical" button at upper right? _________________ In Stereo, Where Available! |

The original owner's manual doesn't show much in the way of details. Hard to see if the screwdriver has a wooden or plastic handle. Thanks for any help. |

I too, was in a search for an original/copy tool set for my '67. The one that came with the sedan had long since vanished but in restoring it, I had found what I believe to be part of the original set. The "U" shaped clip, metal part of the screwdriver and the 13mm socket was found to be in the "black hole" under the hood. Those parts of the original set are now placed with what I think is a copy of what had came with the sedan so long ago. Good luck... _________________ 1967 Deluxe Sedan

Yep, that helps. Black plastic screwdriver handle it is. I guess VW went to the smaller U-shaped hubcap puller prior to '67. |

I believe the leather roll up one Everett posted is correct for 67. Here is what I have. VW logos on it all.
Sorry crappy pics:
You could always check 1967beetle.com for what is correct. Good resource _________________ 1967 Bug:

Would the 13/8mm wrench be a Hazet brand (V-10) for a '67? |

Most likely. I think it was in '66. I believe I have the original kit that came with the car. |

My tool kit is like that and the wrench has Made in West Germany on one side and the word Heyco on the other. _________________ 67 Sun Roof / Born Sept 66 / Second Owner
