I know of 3 parts cars that have been doing the rounds over the last 12 months. One was a blue squareback heading down the midlands and back up to Dublin i believe. Another was a squareback in the kildare region that was on donedeal as a restoreable car which it was if you were ambitious about...

Polishing compounds for head lamp glass may work on the screen. Some of the body polishing compounds would be worth a try if you cant source a windscreen. What is it, fasty or squareback

No, but send me a pm and i will give you a contact of someone who has just had a beetle sprayed by them

two guys set up a new place in Mullingar doing classic car resprays. An eircooled member has had his beetle done there, and he is happy with the result. You need to have deep pockets for a decent respray by a pro. Can you polish out the scratched windscreen

Thanks Robbie, but I got sorted earlier in the week

I am on the hunt for a manifold stem to replace the cracked one on an engine i am working on. Its part number is 113129710E . Or failing that , maybe the loan of one to get my engine started to see if its a viable unit for buying new, thanks.

Got mine this morning too, thanks.

Have all the calenders been posted out, only I haven't received mine yet. Thanks.

Congrats to Daisy's new owner, good luck with the resto and see you early in the new year.

If you are short of a thermostat then coxy can help you out I'm sure, as he did for me.

And just for good measure that it has an engine and not concrete blocks in the boot. Complete with an AS41 case.

I've just discovered that complete new pans were fitted to this car at some time by a vw specialist, so I will be there tomorrow for pics and will send to interested parties, thanks.

Thanks to those that contacted me by pm, i will keep you posted.

Hey lads, anyone that might be interested can you pop us a pm and say so. I dont want to be wasting time messing about with a video if no one is interested, I'm not in the entertainment business and i'm knee deep in my resto and time is valuable. Hope you understand

True, but like I said in an earlier post the price has not been finalised until I get the keys to see inside the car, front boot and back boot and engine. I cant do that yet until she returns from Dublin with them. And then they will name a price

I think I have given a fair description of the condition of the car as I know it from a cursory inspection in my first post. Plus an outline of the work involved with a full body off resto, as well as a quick indication of parts that could run to 8k-9k when all is said and done. And until i get...

Fair point. But the owner asked me to make contact with the club to see if there is interest. And at the moment I am waiting for access with keys which are currently in Dublin but I should be able to get them to get more pics and a video of the condition inside the car as well as the front boot...

No , its not horrendous by any means, and the parts are all available as well. Long term commitment not to be rushed. But I have a variant on the lift and a kombi waiting in the wings, and no place to store it anyway, and I dont have a shed to throw it into anyway. I couldn't even get a comment...

Its had 135 views and no interest. So i think its fair to say no one here is interested.

The owner has had a couple of silly offers that wont get it, and I know one of them wanted to break it for parts.
