Title: Wtb Rim And Windshield
Post by: '71 Lil on October 31, 2003, 11:41:48 PM
i have just bought my dream car and am new to the volkswagen scene.  She's a '71 beetle.  She does need little things that will come with time but i need to start with a rim for my spare. i'm also looking for a windshield. it's flat faced not rounded. also let me know if you just simply have little spare parts like the covers for the window levers on the insides of the doors.

thanks
Mel :rolleyes:

Beware on the wheel.  All 4 bolt wheels are not created equally.  Early ones are 4", late ones 4 1/2".  There are also many different offsets depending on the car.  A Karmann Ghia wheel with 46mm offset will not fit your super.  The tire will rub on the coil springs at the front.  I've seen 41 and 34mm offset as well.  
If Geoff's wheel won't work for you, I have a single that's straight.  I blasted it and had it powdercoated.
