For Sale:- 1955 -1956 VW Hazet roundbox including all twelve originally supplied tools. I have installed a new felt liner that matches the original felt liner. The screwdrivers particularly are in phenomenal condition for their age. There is a small chip out of the top edge of one of the jaws on the 760 slip joint pliers where it looks like someone was clamping something while welding. I am endeavouring to find a replacement 760 tool. The buyer would have the option of swapping the original condition roundbox shown in the photos for a restored identical roundbox for an additional cost of $450-00. The tools included are:
* 1850 – 150 mm pliers
* 764 – Spark plug wrench
* 760 – Slip joint multi-grips
* 772/2 – Lug wrench with Knurled handle
* 561 – 36mm wrench
* 811-9R – Large flat blade screwdriver (very rare but out of a 1962 roundbox. The correct model screwdriver was the 811-6 which is almost non-existent and often in awful condition because people used to use the slip joint pliers to turn the wooden handled screwdrivers)
* 813-2 – Medium flat blade screwdriver (very rare)
* 814-02a – Stubby screwdriver (very, very rare in unused condition)
* 2527 – Fuel pump wrench
* 600 – 14mm open end/ring spanner
* 450 – 10 x 12mm open ended spanner (very, very rare)
* 450 – 7 x 8mm open ended spanner
I have been collecting and restoring Hazet roundboxes for some time and I have never seen a roundbox for sale that included ALL the correct tools. If you were to try to collect the Hazet tools and roundbox individually, it could take a couple of years and with the cost of international shipping added you could be out-of-pocket $4-5,000-00. Offers around $3,000 would be considered. I can also offer Roundbox restoration services (including royal blue flocking, new clips rivets, re-spraying ) to the members if they require.

Free to Good Home:- I am doing a cleanup once again, blame it on Covid if you like, but really I have had my garage refurbished by my grandson who has his own business and has recently added garage floors to the business, using a special paint topped with coloured vinyl flakes and sealed, just a magic finish. So, having said that I have a number of spares to move on, I might add all FREE!, I am only too happy to pass them on to a new home. What I have is:
(4) four headlights, lens rims and connections, some of the connections may need some attention, but generally ok . Two of the headlights came off my 1971 Superbug and have eyelids attached, I replaced them with sealed beams.. The other two are the same vintage 1970’s or thereabouts. Then I have (2) standard front springs in good condition. And (2) Alloy valve covers with locking clips. As I said all free, would like to see them all go together, however, see what happens. I’m based in Figtree, but if need be and someone is really interested I can go to my daughter’s at Lugarno (just up the street from Steve Carter’s home) for lunch one day and bring them with me. Please contact Brian Mannix on 0428 151135 or email brianmannix75@gmail.com
