[T3] Reply from Sydney


Through the list I had a reply from Petri in Sydney who said he was restoring a 71 Notch in Sydney.
I agree that parts are hard to find however not far from my home there is a Self Serve Wrecker that currently has 3 Type 3's, one of each body shape gradually being demolished. I find these an excellent source of those hard to get nuts bolts, washers and grommets that you always seen to misplace when doing a complete rebuild.
If there are any parts that you particularly need let me know and I may have them or know where they are.
I usually go up to this wrecker once a month and fill a couple of big jars with all these little pieces for about $5.
Larger parts are dearer. Two of the above cars still have their engines, the other only its auto trans. Body panels are in good condition.
Shipping to Sydney will not be a problem as I work for a large company as in the transport department and run trucks to Sydney (Wetherill Park) every night.
Let me know if I can be of any help.
I also visit Sydney about every two months for work and found some of the people who deal in Air-cooled VW parts there very helpful, its just difficult sometimes difficult to stay over for the weekend to do the shopping, it is a work trip after all.
Who knows, we may be able to work out a system of a supply run from west to east and vice a versa.
 
Hank.
