74 super bumper shocks

Nov 17, 2007 11 Replies

I need the impossible-to-find bumper shock absorbers for a 74 super beetle. I need all 4 shocks, used is fine so long as they haven't been hit. If you have a set let me know how much you want to part with them.



Alternatively, has anyone actually had one of these 'self-restoring' gadgets actually come back out after a collision? Mine seem to be perma-compressed. ;)

Hey Chris no body makes the bumper shocks new so you will have to find a good used set.

I know I set Joan up with a good set ( I keep all the good ones I get for my customers) so you might want to get ahold of her or kelly now that he stripped the car with no intentionss of ever fixing it.

hat he stripped the car with no intentionss of ever fixing it.

Mario, earn some respect around here by not pushing your s*it. In the future, give advice but don't taint it with your funny colors.

So where's that webcam so we can spy on you?

Have you tried the Samba classifieds?:

I did an ETKA search on those bumper shocks. Wow, they are one-year-only!

1974 only. 75 and up are a different part number.

Hey David

Sorry I've tried to play nice but the dumb a$$es are making it hard

You have to be real stupid to think that after all the time I have in the body shop business that I don't know what I'm doing.

I'm just finishing up 2 beetles now that if you don't think were they were real sweet then you would just be retarded and trust me you would be laughed at if you said anything negitive about them

Hey I'd be happy to put up a web cam if someone wanted to set it up.

Just the idea that people think I use alot of bondo on any of the cars I do shows that people are talking out their ass .

Funniest thing today is a customer said he heard all about this internet BS and said that he was told first hand that I'm the best so he came to me. people want to be able to have the restos done start to finish.

I'm willing to bet that I could keep my gate closed for a month and not take on any new work and at the end off the month they will be lining up at the gate begging for me to do more.

All I can say is what a shame it was to strip a nice beetle down when you can't even think about fixing it because you don't have the ability.

yes I'm cocky because I can be :oP all this $hit is because whinny asses have ego problems and can't get over them.

If people think the answer is to steel from my shop or damage a customers car then it show who the real low lifes are.

My brother in law is working on a 69 camero that to date is a 90k resto and the car isn't in paint yet ..

it would be hell if I was forced into doing work for people other then poor a$$ cheap VW people..

yes I have a standing invite to the street rod shop I worked at in NY , to bad the weather sucked.

Talk all the $hit you want about me cause its not going to amount to anthong other then that,lol

Dumb a$$es even my 13 yr old daughter is saying the comments are retarded de de du de....

And just another bit of info about me ....I've never touched coke ,crack .crank or meth so the lies just make us laugh. But hey the lies just make it easy to prove none of its true. so keep it up

I really Enjoy my life, its to bad so many on heres lives are so pathetic.

Hey I'm the biggest talk on the VW internet what more can anyone ask for ?

I'm just hanging out to see how retarded it all gets.

No one has the balls to bet I could shut down for a month and start out where I left off.

Yada yada
