good idea Deckie,

I'll be bringing some of this stuff (unless someone requests something, then I'll definitely bring it)

4x Marathon steel wheels €100ono
4x 14" mk1 Golf alloy wheels with tyres €150ono
1300 twin port cylinder heads in various states €25 each
'65 beetle door, rare restorable part €50ono
'94 mk3 Polo seats, will fit 3-point beetle rails with a small bit of work €50ono
'94 6N Polo seats, same fitment as above €50ono
'96 6K Cordoba seats, same fitment as above, €50ono
various '70s beetle door and side window glass €5 each
"GT" beetle gearbox, jumping out of 4th, no shafts. Anyone up for a rebuild? offers if you are...
full rolling swing axle beetle chassis, no log book, €250ono
900cc, 1.1, 1.4 Polo engines and matching gearboxes. Not bringing unless someone DEFINITELY wants them :LOL3: €50 each
15" tyres (mostly 195/65), all good and usable, €20 each
I'll see what else I have...

I'm not looking for anything in particular but if anyone has any nice genuine old tat that would look cool up on a roofrack, some old spotlamps/foglamps then I'm all ears.

Oh, I'm looking for some low-profile 14" tyres too...

I also have a 36 hp engine the one with the pedastal for the generator as part of the crankcase which was removed from a beetle because of a leaking crankshaft seal,i can bring that along if there is genuine interest in it.
And lastly i have a beetle which some of ye may remember from a two mile inn show about ten years ago,i bought it off the guy who had alot of work done but never got around to making a start on it myself,it has the doors opening the opposite way,the shell is in exceptional condition and has original floors which are 100 % ,ill post a picture tommrow,if anyone has any interest in any of the above please let me know as ill be sorting out stuff during the week and may not bring everything with me.

I really enjoyed the show in fermoy on sunday a great turn out,i was at the wedding on friday and all went well and my beetle is now up for sale,any of ye see it and have an idea of what price range i should start the asking at. Im not getting out of the beetle scene but making room for my next project which should turn a few heads when its done !!!!!

How complete and what price do you have on the 36 Hp engine? I'm racing in the Bonneville 36hp challenge and might need a spare parts engine if it's priced right. Thanks

I have one disk brake spindle, disk, bearings, all brand new (some surface rust on the disk, could be sandpapered off). You'd have to buy calipers and the other disk and spindle. I'd take €50 for it, it would be a cheap start to a disk brake conversion...

Mac, I might have used calipers and discs to make up the second half of Trev's set - I'll have a better idea later in the week.

Will have pics and an idea of prices in a few days - most of this stuff has accumulated over a good few years so I've no idea what its worth these days.

Just off the phone with Tom Lally. Tom for anyone who doesn't know is one of the longest lasting VW nuts in the country and he has an unhealthy obsession with NOS. He has promised to bring a bootload of NOS parts this Saturday and will as usual be a friendly and seriously valuable pair of ears to anyone with a project ongoing. Tom travels to germany regulatly and brings back NOS stuff and the last time I saw him with a bootload Tom Roberts was with me. To quote Tom R exactly - "I'll take the lot - how much do you want?" (Ah I miss the Celtic Tiger)

This is shaping up to be a great day - I'd love to see KK, VWSpares, Martin, and some of the other big traders bring a table as well. It is free and there is definitely going to be some customers for ye guys.
