Title: Back in the day.
Post by: flatfire on November 25, 2015, 11:42:37 am
Looking through my old documents that my Wife has put away for the past 25 years I stumbled across this receipt. My Bug wasn't the best but the wheels were. Fully restored stove enamelled by Karmann Konnection. The price was for one wheel  :)

There was another 4 with the single. I haven't lived there for years, plus you wouldn't want to break in. My Wife is crazier than a coconut  ;D
