Missing Thing Tin

Kubelmann · Post by **Kubelmann** » Sun Jun 15, 2003 12:27 pm

I am looking for my final two pieces of engine tin for Herr Kubelmann. They are the right and left air deflector plates. They only existed on the 73 Thing. They are shown on page 8 of the VW Thing parts breakdown. They are item numbers 8a and 8b on the illustration and have VW parts numbers 126 119 461 (left side) and 126 119 462 (right side) Anyone have these for sale? K-mann

Gene Berg makes repros of the Thing/Industrial engine tin. something like $15 each.

These are Berg "Industrial" shields.

These are the real thing.

I have a set on my 74 Beetle and they match the real parts almost exactly.

How much will you offer for a pair of original, rust-free, bead blasted 181 tins????
