Title: VW
Post by: pluto radar on November 29, 2016, 04:38:24 pm
I got a small dent in my 2001 Eurovan full camper. The guy at the body shop put the fear of God in me when he said "lady you should fix this dent then sell this van for as much as you can get and walk away because if you get in a bad wreck you will never find the body parts". He went on to say that if it was a westfalia etc that he could find parts all day long but not for the Eurovan full camper.  Any experience with trouble finding body parts for repairs?

The rear hatch, which in metal is the same for all variants, is very hard to get new in the US now. The side pieces (rear of the front doors), are unique to the campers because of the window cutouts (or lack thereof), so I could see those having to come from overseas.
