Decided to scrap the 1959 beetle for several reasons:
- Project was still in The Netherlands, started, got a ragtop roof welded in which I later regretted (as I bought the 1952 split original ragtop).
- Too many other projects and would ultimately not fit all 4 cars in my garage. Better to focus on fewer cars.
- I got a good offer for the body as a guy in Belgium needed it for an oval restoration.
- Some parts I will keep for my 1955 convertible: engine (with Judson), gearbox and brakes (356A) will be transplanted into the vert... one day...

As this is a 1959 beetle most parts will fit 1956 - 1959 beetles!!!

So the following is for sale:
- Full interior. Seats and bench in blue cloth (original) extra set of rear benches - Very good condition
- Original door and quarter panels in blue
- NEW German woloen headliner (not for ragtop) by HimmelService http://www.himmelservice.de/english/home.html
- NEW full German square carpet set by HimmelService, anthracite and rear lugage area in lightgrey (as correct for a black car)
- NEW full set of rubber mats light grey from WolfsburgWest (LHD) also have NEW matching grey handbrake boot (not easy to find)
- Rear view mirror and separate NOS visor
- Door mechanisms, catches etc
- Electric components (e.g. speedometer in KM)
- NOS windscreens
- All other glass in VERY good condition
- All window rubbers and trim from WolfsburgWest
- NOS passenger door handle, drivers side is new WolfsburgWest
- NEW restored blaupunkt radio
- NOS BOSCH spotlight
- NEW semaphore lenses (repro)
- NEW door rubbers, felt, quarterlight rubbers etc. All WolfsburgWest
- Shifters
- 3 steering wheels (1x Petri rare "Rometsch" wheel)
- Full set of brakes (rebuild)
- 4 NOS 5.6 R15 radials (real nice old look tires)
- 2x 165 R15 radials (modern look)
- Bumper brackets (think there is a NOS set too)
- NEW vent trims (repro)
- Small interior bits and pieces
- Rear option seat belts (not repro)
- Fuel tanks
- NOS tail light lenses (4x), 2 sets of housings, brackets, NEW chrome rings
- Rare option VDO 1957 - 1960 only clock (fits where later beetles have fuel gauage)
- Round 52mm VDO fuel gauge (VW accessoiry)
- NOS RHD headlight lenses

I need a left door for my oval, so long as it looks superficially "correct" I'd be happy. I'll leave the finer details to the trainspotters ;)

I also need a windscreen for the oval too.

Do you have anything to suit?

Thanks
