I have a 1967 Squareback and am in need of a few parts....
Driver side Fender with headlight
Front Hood
Front Bumper
Rims? stock or aftermarket.......
I recently got a hold of a 1967 Squareback that was hit on the front drivers side and need a little help locating parts. I have owned bugs but not type 3's. I am told by Brax that fenders from a 68 and 69 would fit with mods.
Brax doesn't have anything at the moment so I am reaching out. Thanks

Thanks, I just got my 63 rag out of the body shop. It's now in primer. I getting this 67 square from a friend of the original owner. It's been sitting since 1995 when the original owner was using it as a commuter vehicle from Livingston to Whitehall and was cut off and a truck hit the driver side front and mangled the fender. The PO drove the car home and parked it. My friend said the PO would start the car up and let it run about once every month or two until about two or three years ago. He always intended to fix it but never got around to it. My friend said he would get it fixed for him and take him for one more drive. After that I am buying for the cost of fixing it from him. The interior is almost perfect but the paint is obviously faded and the rubber is in a bad state. I will keep you posted and post some pics of both dubs when I get the chance.
