Just been given this link off a guy on the samba, if you're struggling for tinware he seems to have it all. http://www.averysaircooled.com/parts/bus/bus_engine_tin.cfm
I've e-mailed them a couple of times and they didn't get back to me, maybe it's just they didn't have the parts in stock and could be bothered to tell me. Hope you have better luck
i'm waiting on the guy you put me in contact with mate, but earlier today i joined the samba forum and some guy on there gave me the link, it was just to help others if your guy comes up good i'll use him.
yeah no worries, it's annoying dealing with the US sometimes especially when somebody has that holy grail part you've been looking for and they don't want to deal with us over here.
