I don't think they would be interested in doing the big stuff (sheet metal, dashboards, seats etc)
I think sheet metal should be the number one thing remanufactured

Unlikely that the original tooling still exists

How about the chrome trim around the windows?! For front and rear rubbers, and the side and door windows? Mine are dented and don't really want to put them back on a ground up resto!
Ps, does anyone know if the door ones were different for cars that had opening quarterlights?

Hello!
I was dreading someone putting a topic up such as this as i have it all 10 times over!!
Just need "that" summer to sort it all out!
Got umpteen panels (wings, doors, bonnets, scuttle panel, windscreen corners, front panels, rear panels, cills etc etc) in storage containers including NOS and some fully soda-blasted back to the bare metal and refinished for now in etch primer.
I just need some tick tock
(time and tide and all that) and then, for a fair price, i can help you all out!
NO-ONE is allowed to PM me!

Just name a day... maybe on a bank holiday weekend, and have a Scirocco garage sale :D I think you'll draw a good crowd!
See you at Easter?

For me, it's the center a/c vent. The one replacing ashtray. I think there are quite a few to be found in junkyard in the US. Oh please, someone over there, please help me..

i'm just about getting to crisis point,over 2 years now of an economic down turn doesn't allow me to think about a wishlist though a genuine drivers wing will always top the list until it arrives, unfortunately my stockpile of parts may well be hitting a market near you very soon...

i haven't seen this. Not on the top of my list but it should be nice to have this. Thanks. If you came across the vent, please let me know. I'm searching through vwvortex for it.
