Mystery Part

#1 Post by Bruce Snowdon »

Looking for help identifying this small bracket. I believe it's from the engine or tins but I lost the bag it came out of. 1962 T6 B. Thanks.

Isn't it to hold the window rail in the door?

That part is bolted on to the engine case and holds the tin in place next to the dipstick. Absolutely required part.

Found it thanks. You always think you've taken enough disassembly photos! Good thing I chose black for the finish.
