KdF All The Way!

1943 VW KdF speedometerHere are some eBay auctions of KdF parts that fetched some nice prices. Low demand of these rare parts often pushes the price sky high, but what if it’s the last part you need to complete your restoration? This usually results in paying the price! :-) The first item is a 1943 VDO speedometer  for a Kübelwagen or some other KdF type car. It definitely needs restoration. I wonder how much that would cost compared to the selling price? The second item is a dash pod that would make a perfect match with the first item. It has the cog wheel logo on the rear side. The last item is a Solex 26 VFI II carburetor for a type 166 Schwimmwagen which is looking very good! It could be NOS. It also has the cog wheel logo. As you can see, there’s some real investing going on in the vintage VW scene!
