Hey There Frankie-boy,
Hope your trip is going well!!
A chap by the name of Farhaad mentioned that he has a contact for hoodlining material - could you find out who they are and or if you are reading this Farhaad - Please could you assist!!!
Thanks a ton!
I will be putting some 6v headlamps up for sale in the next few days - if there are any interested parties????
By the way - "Rosie" aka BB has gone for her touchups at the panelshop and should be back with us by Friday!!
Just thought you would like to know

Hi Jurgen
Sorry for being forward, but I think that Farhaad mentioned the EMPI roof lining kit that Dave Rowley sells at Flat Four Racing... if this is what you referring to, he can be contacted on FFR...0215561985
Tell him I say hi
if you are referring to the early model headlamps... dibs please depending on price?

basically check the globes voltage afaik ?
Oh and of course, the early beetles had a different diffusion (?) pattern on the front headlight lenses compared to the later beetles. This was even before they changed from slanted to upright.

Muds....you have. They may not be my lights.....I have a set of 6 & 12v. I dropped them at Jurgen in case he needed for Rosie. I don't need them and Emse might be selling for me to help pay the bill!
