WTB: Control arm brackets with swaybar mounts

[nocones77-vw at yahoo.com (nocones77-vw@xxxxxxxxx)]

Man, shrinking the image down like that...you sure don't make it easy.
That's quite a pile of parts there! And some good stuff in the mix, too.



Hmmm...there's a couple sets of control arms with bushings still
attached, but no brackets. I'm not sure I see anything, but there's a
brown blob around the front swaybar to the right, making me wonder if
the brackets are still attached to it...?



Thanks for letting me play, even if I didn't win! :-)

The whole rebuild kit comes with new brackets, bolts, control arm hardware, and rubber bushings for $20...but the brackets are of the non-swaybar variety. And no yards around here ever seem to have any A1s these days. :-(

Neal, find one of the brackets in my pile-o-parts, and circle it in
red, no make that a purple trapezoid and you can have them for the
price of shipping...
