Here's a picture for you of the rear cover of a Flotter Transport special edition brochure that I have in my collection/scanned into the samba's archives:

Thanks vwed and readyboy, but doesn't replacing he armature mean the whole lot pings apart? Also, how much is that nos motor bud? I have the 6v one in ...

I've got the correct 6 volt Bus wiper motor available NOS and used. As per type21's posting above, it is then a 2 minute job to change the armature. Going down that route means you know 100% that the motor will physically fit. Why go to the hassle of getting a Beetle wiper motor (which has a differe...

Same part for LHD and RHD.

19K into a light resto on a Bay! - that's outrageous.

Part number is 211 711 411.
Googling that hasn't come up with anything.

Do they do a two speed 6v?? Yes. As per the parts book extracts: 211 955 111 Q = 6 volt, August '65 to end July '66. It is two speed. 211 955 113 Q = 12 volt from August '66 to end of production July '67. Also 2 speed. Essentially they are the same motors apart from the armatures of course. Also th...

All ads on the samba have a feedback tab you can click to see if there is any feedback on the seller. Also the length of time the seller has been a samba member is listed. A long time member with some positive feedback would be a good recommendation.

I have a NOS one of the mechanism you have pictured, correct for a '55 - '60 Bus.
Part number 211 837 016 B.
£35 plus £2.80 postage.

The samba.com currently has 469 ads for Split Buses and 8000 ads for Split Bus parts!
I would suggest this is more than every other VW site combined.
Its online user figures are impressive as well.

The EBI takes place one week after the vintage Bad Camberg show, so that people can visit both whilst "on the road", time and budgets permitting.
