I have been looking for a long time to find original window scrapers for my Hebmuller!
But 6 weeks ago I found them in America and the seller assured me they were like the originals!
Big was my disappointment when I opened the package! Shit, they look like ordinary scrapers of an old convertible!
A little voice in my head told me to go and check the documents that came with the Hebmuller when I bought.
I did so and guess what?
I could not believe my eyes when I saw blueprints in scale 1:1 together with meassurements of an convertible window scraper ....... and the blueprint of a Hebmuller window scraper!
According to the old document the window scraper I bought in America as being a Hebmuller one was in fact the one for a convertible!
So we looked around and we found a company willing to reproduce in high quality rubber!
So I am saved now!
But maybe somebody out of there needs those scrapers too due to a restoration ..... or just to renew ..... or just to have!
Feel free o ask!:wink:

:twisted: ET

ps Sorry no pics yet, but they come!!!
I ’ll never regret the things I did wrong!
I only regret the good things I did for the wrong people!

Who did you buy from in the States ET?
Isn't Roger Dean already reproducing these.
And i'm sure Big Bjoern from Wolfsburg already has a contact on these rubbers.

The man calls himself DeanDG so son't know if it's the same person we are talking about? The rubber he send is different than the rubbers used in the hebmuller shown in the ad on The Samba!

He just told me that the possibility ecxists that hebmuller used different kinds of window scrapers!!
Don't think so!
He already sold several sets and they were al OK!
My guess is than that many Hebmullers in America have the wrong window scrapers!
Or maybe he send me a wrong package?

Last year I got the adress of the small companie, who produced the rubbers in the right quality and I tried to start a reproduction. One Heb-guy who owns a company asked me to produced it in his name and so I gave all informations to him. Nothing happends and so Christian Grundmann an me are starting the reproduction again because we need them four our own cars and the Hebs of a few friends. The rubbers in german quality will be available in December 2008 and the set will cost around 90 Euros. For all of you who are interested in - please contact me or Christian...

The rubbers like in the pictures above are now available for 75 euro/car !
These rubbers are made in Germany and they are German A quality rubbers !
We have enough rubbers now for 5 extra cars, but we can order more !
The rubbers above are the rubbers we reproduced and not the rubbers that ET bought in the USA !
3 sets are sold To Germany !CG

1 set ordered Canada !PS
1 set ordered Norway!OA
So I'll order tomorrow more rubbers !
If There are more people interested please let me know ASAP !

Hello Thomas,

I ordered the window scrapers in America too! (from Dean)

Hoping on receiving the same rubbers as shown in the ad!!
However when I received the window scrapers they did not had the same shape, form as the ones in the ad!

Maybe Dean has sent me a wrong package?

Dear Guido,

thanks for the information. On this way, it doesn't make sense to start our own reproduction-line. Especially if your price could be valued 20% less than with german tax as we have to pay. We have to order a minimum of 100 Meters - enough for 25 cars. Too much for the small numbered Hebmüller-marked.

Ok Thomas you're in!!!

Here are a few pictures from the rubber profiles !
The second picture shows the correct Hebmuller profile !
The rubber Dean is selling are IMO correct for a Karmann Conv.
You also can do other things with my rubbers as you can see in the last picture :lol:
Maybe something for Carnaval!:lol: :wink:

Regards,

Guido
