Hi, does anyone know where I could get hold of the bush that goes in the bracket above the fuel tank for the gear linkage? sent brickwerks an email about it a while ago but they just said it was obsolete. any work around for this if it can't be obtained?
Cheers

As far as I know, it is obsolete, but there are some workarounds. Here's how Sarran did it recently:

There was also a discussion on The Samba forum about using bushes from alternative sources:

Hope that helps.
