  1. Just like the heading says. I am looking for a type 1 upright motor rear engine bar for my 72. I am converting it to type 1 from type 4. also interested in the mounts if they are different.

    Here is picture for reference

  2. Don't do it !
     
  3. Got the bar (no mountsm just bar) £25, post should be £10 UPS or collect London/Surrey/Sussex/Midlands
     
  4.  
  5. Still looking. I never heard back from MattP
     
  6. sorry not sure if i sent you a pm or mattp, TRY tom or dave organisers of kent vw Festival, their was a trader at the show who made them pucker job,think they are on facebook Dave and tom Orange and white high top splitty advertising the show on side, hope you get sorted Barney
     
  7. I've not had a chance to seek out a better rate for shipping but based on a notional 8kg, 100*15*10cm package the cheapest I could find was £43 -hence why I suggested you could get one made in Canada for the cost of the shipping/import tax and the bar.

    If you want this sent to your friend as you are visiting then no problem, it is just now worth spending £43 shipping a £25 part.

    If anyone knows a cheaper way to send the bar please let me know
     
  8. Bump again, no facebook. Does anybody have the name or number for the gents selling the repro bars? MattP, I have sent you a PM a while back and still haven't heard back. I am willing to pay the shipping, I just want a picture first before shelling out the money.
     
  9. Will get you the pic but have been a little busy with work. Will get something sorted out for the end of the week. Will this want posted to your mate in UK or you in Canada, also, have you looked into cheaper posting methods?
     
  10. Posted to me in Canada. i look forward to pics.

    Thanks,
     
  11. Still on the hunt, MattP's bar was rusted through. Engine bar and brackets or just engine bar wanted!
