My choque cable was blocked in the chassis.
The day before I've sprayed a half a can of WD-40 into the cabletunnel
I've spended about three hours to get it out.
When it was out I've sprayed again and then blowed all the dirt out!
Luckaly there was nobody behind my car! :lol:
A hell of a job! 😶
Now I've installed a NOS one.:d  Afbeelding 187.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

I'm not sure if it will work,and I'm not gone dismantel my lock, but atleast you could give it a try !
Original VW part but not beetle ????
I take it with me tomorrow, and give it to you if you have the sunvisor with you :lol:

Ah yes, how can I forget- Jean & I were just walking across the hotel car park to our car when a crazy German woman came running after us shouting "Can you help me? Can you help me? ET has left my hotel without paying for his room! Please tell him to come back & pay!!" (in German of course). I had no idea what she was saying but I knew she was not a happy bunny!! :lol: Oh how we laughed... ET- 😳 :d

ET is good guy, but You can take him only ones with you to a hotel or other place, the next time you're not welcome anymore:cry: ! As far I know there are 3 Hotels in Germany and 1 in the UK :shock: , that will think twice before giving him a room again ! :lol: :lol:

But ET you're stll my best friend :lol: I know there will come a day that we have to buy a camper or caravan if we would like to go to a VW meeting , damn, now I forgot almost that you also crashed a bed in my eriba puck a few years ago !

Started to work on the runningboards.
Removed the old rubber and bought the correct rubber to replace.
The runningboards will be sandblasted and painted.  Afbeelding 1557.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 1558.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 1559.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

What a special car! :d :beer:

Runningboards are sandblasted and primered.
Painted black again!
Maybe a bit too shiny?
To put the rubber back in place is not that easy when you have two left hands! :lol:  Afbeelding 1563.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 1567.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 1568.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 1570.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

Can you tell me where I can get the correct shaped running board mats? I'm planning on fitting a pair of WW boards to my car (the OG are too far gone) but I'd like the correct shaped mats. :wink: Car is May 55.
Tks

I believe KK sell the correct fade away type but they are nt listed on their website! Might be worth giving them a ring Martain! :wink:

Having said that Pascal probably has a different source! (NOS parts bin? :wink: :lol: )

---

I bought them from Jorg Beckmann in Germany.
I think he is reproducing them.
He will be at Hessich Oldendorf this summer.
Sorry no NOS ones .... 😞
