Not KK - chancers.

Don't suppose anyone has a gearbox for a MkII Golf 1.6, ('90)?

One that just clips in or something, real easy like...

EDIT: Sorry - I was thinking of Karmann Konnection, they're the chancers. :D

No idea yet, need to look into it - I was all set to get the CV joints sorted until about half an hour ago, mechanic reckons the box is shagged and added 'is it even worth doing?' :(

I have a few VDO gauges and senders that I'll bring with me if I'm going.
Oil temp gauge
Oil pressure gauge
Cylinder head temp gauge
Oil pressure sender
2 oil temp senders (dipstick and sumplate senders)
I don't have the sender for the cylinder head temp, but you can get them off Heritage fairly cheap.

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...
Hey Trev,
Im not going to Galway, but im looking for new front seats for my 1303, particulary the drivers seat, which is on the left in mine!The mk3 polo seats sound right. are they black?

emmett, I'll get pics for you when I get back from Galway, I'm heading out the door for Limerick now. I have a single original beetle 3 point seat in the back shed that might do too.
