OEM German VW Beetle Chassis Donor Section — 1965 Type 1, Shifter & Rod Hanger Area

Genuine German VW Beetle Chassis Section - Shifter & Rod Hanger Donor

Don't settle for "close enough" when repairing the backbone of your restoration. This is an Original German VW Beetle chassis section specifically sourced from a clean 1965 Type 1 pan. This cut includes the critical shifter mounting area and the factory-correct shift rod hanger still intact.

Replacing this high-stress area with thin aftermarket reproduction metal often leads to poor shifter alignment and structural flex. By using a genuine factory donor section, you ensure the correct metal gauge, perfect pressing contours, and original weld-nut placement.

To save you hours of prep time, this section has been professionally media blasted and finished in a light grey powder coat primer. This "ready-to-weld" finish ensures no hidden rust or pitting and provides an ideal surface for a high-end chassis repair.
