I've also got a 6v motorola speaker that mounts under the dash. It looks universal, but I was told it was made for VWs. I've also got a set of louvers for the back window (my buddy calls 'em go fasters) they are from the seventies, but not made by empi. I got them in the box in the bag never been opened. Not worth alot but awesome nonetheless. I also have a 6v radio kit, made by Import specialties?(I think). It also is complete, down to the mounting brackets and speaker. If anyone can ID this radio, it would be cool. The instructions (yep, it's got those too) say it was made in 1964, but I don't know. I'm new at all this collecting stuff, so I just can't say no if it's for a VW. I also have all the owners and dealer literature for a 1960 bug. It's the "Enjoying your new car" book, and a full coupon book for a vw dealer- free oil changes and inspection. I might try to use one for my car one of these days  |

| I've got a 36 horse Judson (but no oiler), Empi GT-V taillights-the chromed stockers, an empi dealer catalog from 1967, a pair of Italian weber 40's bolted to a set of Deano manifolds, a dehne gas guage, A GT-V stripe kit. I don't know how rare or valuable this stuff is, but most of it is pretty cool stuff. |

My mint NOS in the box with instructions in German 3 in 1 Motometer gauge with all sending units. Sold it last year to a guy in Canada. For my current project, a 60 ragtop, a set of mint ET wheels with correct NOS caps and lugs or the NOS popouts. LOTS more NOS stuff going on this ride...

The rarest Find I have is a NOS Judson Supercharger Boost gauge! (And I think I paid How do U say--Stupid Money for it!) Oh well I got the Gauge Thats what counts.
I have a set of Repco Oversize 20/10 Main bearings for the 25-36hp motor--try finding those anymore! Those If needed will be put on my future Judson Motor.
WHAT I REGRET! I had an OG German roof rack that a nieghbor / farmer had on his property--he had asked if I wanted it because as he said it was going to end up in the Trash. I traded it along with my OG 65 sedan--at Randy Carlsons Old bug for a 57 sedan. wasn' all that Bad |

I have an NOS one of those. They are pretty cool. |
i got one from Ev, and i've seen about 7 others.
rare? well.........
unusual? yes, and pretty useful too. |
There's been a guy on ebay selling those adapters for about 6 weeks now. Apparently he has a bunch of them. Guys were killing themselves to bid on the first few he listed, but then the fool started bragging about how many he had right in his ad. Now the price is down in the $20's I think. |

I had a nos car once. Until I drove it. But back then it wasn't considered nos. Rarest thing I got is a nos set of Empi Sprint stars 4 lug, Nos Fuel Gauge, Nos Speedo. And a round fuel gauge and sender for a 60 beetle. Oh yeah I have a center seat for a 55 bus.
