How perfect would this be on Tom’s car?

(edit – just realized Tom’s light is on right, and this is left.  But still….)

How about this mega-rare NOS Hella VW fog light bumper guard? Check out the VW stamp still visible on the inside, so cool! Only 1, front left. #kaiscollection #vintagetreasures #vwrarestoftherare #nosvw #vwnos #vwaccessories #aircooledaccessories #hella #hayburner #airmighty #hotvws

I’m sure Melvin has delivered these two sick ass VW’s…  I’m surprised we haven’t seen a picture or two from the highway!!! 😎

Tom must be out hunting or I am sure we would have heard something by now..

Enjoy..

Been a wild ride, but it got me here 😎

Got my cars home.   I put it in the garage since we have 6” of snow.    Looks beautiful and purrs like a kitten.    Thanks KCW.   I will post things up as i get time and the snow melts.    I threw  my bus in storage due to snow.

You should be getting that torsion bar any day also.

Thanks Franz.   I appreciate it.   This car has parts sourced from Belgium, Switzerland, Australia and Germany.  Pretty cool.

I’ve had this on the back of my bench for a few days. Tom gave a guy in Belgium $1000 for it. Converting to RHD. Luckily, tom had a portion of his original in addition to the complete unit from Belgium.

Check out how small that passenger visor is. I replaced the plastic with a cut down WW unit.

All the chrome and aluminum polished nicely.

I was just messing around yesterday,  things went smoothly, I was excited to finish this morning. Short visor (10 3/4″) riveted together with cut down plastic.

Check out the profile and screw depth difference on the lower edge. Base in the foreground look rookie-built.

To reverse the visor and mirror I had to drill/tap a 5mm for a set scew on the opposite side.

And a new set screw dimple in the chrome shaft for the mirror.
