Preservation Parts work hard to provide our customers with perfect parts which fit on the first attempt. Try your hand at replacing your older and weaker panels and bring your classic back to its former glory. There’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of replacing an old part, with its perfect replica! These are made to accurately mimic the shape, dimensions and tension of the original parts that were made by VW.

These accurate depictions are created through a variety of hand-worked and mechanical processes, some of which include laser cutting and CNC milling.


Why should I replace my existing classic part?

Your T2 top hat section is important, and it’s even more important that it’s replaced when it gets weakened, damaged or rusty. Produced from the correct gauge steel to VW’s original specification and please note that these were only fitted to pre-1976 models. This top hat section is the outrigger without the jacking point which fits between the chassis rail and the inner sill.
