Welcome authenticity nuts! Yes, for some bizarre reason we really do care about the strangest things. Here's a photo of the tiny wire mesh screen I removed from the disintegrating rubber hose in the original windshield washer bag in my A coupe. Jon Bunin told me it would be there, but I had thrown the hose away. So I dug it out, dissected the hose and there it was. I would hate to lose that original part...

You're welcome, Barry. But most of us are not "nuts" or "obsessed"- for some "bizarre reason"- about the "strangest things". We merely have an interest, or curiosity, about how these cars were built.

Re: wire mesh screen in windshield washer bag hose
Thanks Barry.
It reminds me of another filter that is often forgotten. Below is a shot of the wire mesh filter in the Knecht air filter can. This is where the hose connects from the C oil filler can.

Thanks Paul. I am "shocked, shocked to find" your rapid reply to my post in the Authenticity Corner Forum. My gosh, next I'll find out that there are gambling websites...

Jon, I hope you recognized that I was just kidding around. After all, I'm the first "nut" to post in this new Forum.
Best regards,
