If you would be so kind as to help me translate your message (due to long-forgotten Afrikaans lessons), I might be able to help.
I have '68+ rear fenders for you, in good condition, and would be willing to sell them.
Cheers, Nic.

Thanks.
My Afrikaans went downhill after school - fast!

Which?
I tend to have a continuous stream of "items" coming my way.
Sell? If it ain't listed, it ain't for sale.

It's been more than a few weeks now, but then the @#$%ing post office strike isn't helping...
No parcel slips this morning, so they're still in transit...

...browsing the graveyard, Tony?
My bug's been running for several years now. Other things took priority, so although I have what I need to finish it, the interior has been as partially stripped for years. It won't be done until the bodywork is sorted and a respray has been effected. It is a 'toy', so to be honest, I'm not particularly phased about making it look pretty. It does what it was intended to do, and it does so very well.
It's currently sitting in KZN, dormant. It developed a problem with #3, just before I 'relocated'.
My '54 has taken over as my primary project, at present.
