  Parts<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
  <DIV></DIV>Hey folks, I've noticed numerous emails regarding suitable 
  substitutes for various Type 3 parts that can come from other VW's or even 
  non-VW's.&nbsp; Is there a master list somewhere that we can reference or can 
  we create something like this?&nbsp; It would seem to me that we have a lot of 
  knowledge out here in this community and a resource like this would be 
  extremely valuable as these cars continue to&nbsp;age and parts become even 
  more difficult to find.&nbsp; Thoughts?<BR><BR>Ken Rose<BR>'68 Squareback
