Has a date for the Eirespares show 2016 been announced yet? I presume it's the 17th July but just checking if anyone's heard the official word?

A friend asked me to advertise these here: a pair of NOS, genuine VW/Bosch boxed type25 headlamps look them up, Heritage sell Genuine VW ones for €62 each plus postage, he's looking for €75 for the pair, collected from Tipperary (near Ballingarry) PM me for his number, you can deal...

I'm converting my bay from 1.9D to 1.9TDI. To get there I have to rip everything out and start again. So the current setup is going to be for sale. The details: 1.9D engine from a mid '90s Vento. The car was maintained by my dad for a customer for most of its life so had a known history...

My query is specific to my Jetta but is relevant to all drag cars I think so keep your hair on ;) I was talking to Dave at the weekend about this drag racing lark. I have plans for more power this year but I think my current gearbox is a limiting factor in how fast I can get up the strip. It's...

I bought this from Riggsi earlier this year thinking it'd be a great donor for my bay. Turns out it won't be such a good donor, it's far better suited to a conversion into a type25/T3 van due to the location of the tandem pump and the bay window fuel tank. I could cut a space in the...

the next drag racing fixture is on at the old reliable Bishopscourt venue on Sunday the 18th. Anyone going? I'm hoping to get there.

I bought these for the Subaru beetle years ago and never did anything with them. I think they were originally mini fitment but I got a pair of stiffer springs that should suit the extra weight of the beetle. It was all a bit experimental really. I suppose they would ideally find a home in a...

Who's going to Longford on Sunday? If there's a break in the weather it should be a fun day out!!

Twin 40 Weber DCNF carbs with tall twin port manifolds. I know nothing about these carbs, I bought them a while back and they're still in the box I got them in. I'm unlikely to get around to using them. So someone else can have a pop: €250

anyone into minis or have any buddies into minis? I have a friend who's restoring a 50 year old motorbike side car and is looking for a single 10" alloy wheel to suit it. He says it's on a 4x4" bolt PCD. I think that matches minis. he'd like a slot mag but I'd say he'd consider anything at...

anyone got an aftermarket fuel pump that's surplus to requirements? Doesn't have to be particularly high-pressure or anything, just a basic lift-pump. I had one of those Facet solid-state fuel pumps on my Westy back when it was petrol engined and bar some teething issues, once it was sorted it...

In case anyone's interested. :) http://www.autostadt.ie/phpbb3/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=16477

I know it's early but we might as well start thinking about it. A good few of us should be heading up the M1 towards Bishopscourt for DD3 in a couple of weeks time. For DD1 I met up with a few at IKEA on the M50, for DD2 I met up with some at M7 Midway Portlaoise and then another meetup at the...

I have a genuine VW early Bay rubber cab mat in my late Bay. It's doing the job but is a bit "wrong" around the door steps. Does anyone have a comparable late Bay mat they'd like to swap with me?

If anyone here is thinking of doing the TDI and 5-speed conversion in their bay/T3 then this is the ideal donor car. It's a '97 Audi A4, AHU code 90BHP TDI engine, 5-speed manual gearbox. Body is rough, interior is worse but I'm reliably informed it was driving fine until parked up. I can't...

the old tank out of my '74 bus. Single "screw-on" outlet in the bottom. Was pinholed but has been repaired. Was fine when I took it out of my van to fit a twin-outlet tank for the diesel conversion. free to a deserving bus owner :)

It would appear Bray Vintage Club are trying to organise some kind of meetup for all NI reg cars. Sorry to link to facebook but I don't have any more info than what's here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1775839902642497/?ref=3&ref_newsfeed_story_type=regular&feed_story_type=117 do we have...

a BICYCLE rack, you filthy beggars!!! :lol3: can anyone recommend a nice easy to use, secure bicycle rack for the back of my bus? It would be a bonus if it could be transferred to the Passat estate too but not a deal breaker. Must be able to accomodate two adult bikes and two toddler bikes with...

I'm on the hunt for some mk1 Jetta headlamps and tail lamps. And a right front wing. actually, if you had a dead or dying mk1 Jetta or even a mk1 Golf ready to be scrapped, I'd give it a new home for a while. There are a few bits I could pillage from another one for mine ;)
