WTB: '56 beetle resto project parts
« on: July 26, 2016, 12:49:10 PM »
I'm restoring a 1956 Canada Custom (Canadian Standard) and I'm in need of some parts. Before I order new I'd like to see if there are any good used or NOS parts available locally.

Currently what I'm looking for are a pair of torsion covers and 3 seat clamp wing nuts. I'm missing 3 wing nuts from my set but have all clamps, and my torsion covers are rusted through. They've gotta be OE used (good condition or better) or NOS. Covers have to be 52-59 ... I think those are the years, see pic for reference. If you've got the wing nuts but only want to sell a set, I'll buy the set, with or without clamps. Must be for beetle though, no type 2 bench clamps. I'll be ordering new parts in a couple weeks if nothing comes up but I'm always interested in OE/NOS parts. I will update.

Thanks for all your help,

Joe
