Volks - This is your chance to obtain vintage, original Vanagon parts!!!

1- 1985 Original Continental spare tire!  $299.95  185/14, ORIGINAL
GERMAN AIR, still has 26# of the stuff, after 14 years!  Has never set
footprint on pavement - still has those original little tits sticking
out from all over its surface!  Don't miss out on the chance to have an
original piece of German history!!!

2- 1985 GL ENTIRELY original exhaust system!!!!!!!!!!!  $495.00  This
system has marginal rust intrusion, the catalytic converter STILL
converts relatively harmless exhaust gases into frankly toxic, unknown,
products which bring tears to the eyes of old mechanics!!!  Don't miss
out on this opportunity to have a piece of fine German steel to grace
your needs!

3- 1985 GL passenger side window crank!  $59.95  Need I say more?

4- 1985 GL water temperature/oil pressure mechanism (complete)!
$499.95  Have no need for flashing lights, buzzers, etc.  Finally got me
some good ole mechanical gauges to tell me what my water temperature &
oil pressure ACTUALLY were!!!  I sleep better these nights, BUT I know
that purists out there enjoy "original" stuff!  NO resonable offer
refused.

5- 1985 GL ORIGINAL FI lines!!! $99.95  Own a real piece of history!

6 - 1985 GL brake lines.  $39.95  Slight surface rust, BUT, still, an
original piece of Vanagon history - invaluable for folks who like such
stuff!
