Found the Test Light . . . So that kit is complete. Does anyone know where I can pick up a clean 811-6 or 811-9r screwdriver? Just picked up a sweet Hazet box with clean flocking . . . the screwdriver is all that's missing.

Your garage is great! I was on another thread about Stahlwille and Hazet and remembered sending a pic of the VW Tool Kit from Stahlwille. Here is a picture of it open . . . I've always dug the orange screwdrivers. Again, great garage . . . and keep that VW on the road!

Mac - That is a very impressive and useful overview . . . I think it may have solved the Big "A", little "a" mystery. Army - I've been to 356 before and found it useful. But I reallyy liked the Bus & Camper piece . . . a very good read! I also found that ratwell.com is pretty hip on VW...

Thanks, Army! I've had the Hazet boxes with the blue flocking, but they were too early for my '67. I have one now that's correct for the '67. The only thing it's missing is the test light that goes in the middle clip. But I think that's the last year they did the spare tire kits. In '68 I VW...

Thanks for the reply. I thinks that's best best route - just get what's close and be on the look out for the "real" ones as I go. And you're right - it is a niche market, which is sometimes frustrating, but when you get all the right tools together, it's bitchin'.

Cool garage. I only found out about Stahlwille in the last two years and have become a fan. What year is your Bug? Stahlwille did the tool kit for VW's in 1973 - '74.

I've been working on putting together Hazet spare tire tool kit for my VW Bug.:rocker: As I shop around for the wrenches, I notice that some are being advertised as a Big A Hazet and a Little a Hazet. What do these "A"s mean? Do they correspond with a certain year? Would they fit in the 1967...

Nice find! I've become a new fan of Hazet since I discovered the spare tire tool kits.

Those hazet spare tire boxes are cool. Mine is missing a test light. Beeen looking for some time. Great toools!

Can totally get into that!

I also noticed that hazet stopped flocking their tool boxes at some point. Does anyone know when this happened?

Does anybody know when VW switched from Hazet to Stahlwille? I have a Stahlwille set for my 67 VW, but it's not period correct.:shocking: Help me find some answers.

Good info.

Old Stahlwilles are cool. I dig the 437.

All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break them for no one.
