Slowly want to start getting back into this.
I noticed recently that I have no internals for the door. If anyone has, please let me know.
Looking for all door parts

Post a photo, I still have most of the oval door inner parts.

They should be the same, but want to make sure if they will fit.

You may even have split doors......... :mrgreen:

Just trying to be funny......

The Parts I have are 56, so they should be the same, but just want to make sure.

Will look this weekend, and post photos of what I have.

Still have 2 sets of door latches as well, but will post what I have.

These doors also need a lot of work :cry:
The one door has been welded on the inside. I do have the glass but no internals.

This has again been put on hold.
Really got stuck into the oval over December holidays, it lasted about a week.
Other priorities took over again. The front end of the kombi is also sagging which I need to look at.

I got a donor beetle shortly after getting the oval, and the poor donor has been standing outside for quite a while now.
Last weekend I decided to start cutting all the panels I might need for the oval before it faces another winter.
My father also made a tool to open the gutters, which works a treat. Will take a pic of the actual tool, its in one of the VW books and was used in the factory.
Couple of pics of the donor beetle getting the chop.
