Hi havnt posted since january now since 49 went. Anyway i was clearing out my gararge last week and came across a set of Brake cables from my old 1949 beetle. obviously these should have gone with the car, but in the panic and tears of loading it all up (i delievered it to him) the bag of cables must have got burried in the 'crap' Anyway if any of you know the guy who bought my 49, please tell him i have some cables for him, as i do not have his adress or number anymore. if i dont hear anything then they will be free to who ever wants them! (either a full set or the front 2 cables- i havnt checked. in full greased working order, early ones with the grease nipples as well :D ) regards Lee [ATTACH]1750[/Attach]

Hi Lee, If you don't trace the new owner I would be interested in them for my standard. Cheers Kev

If for some stage reason you get no takers I'd like them, I need front cables for my 49.

Hi sorry nev the australian chap emailed me before your reply. so hes got first takings if i cant trace the owner. obviously there will be a shipping charge to auz, so the chap may not feel it viable, in which case nev they are yours.
