    I think 25 is available through Stoddard. They also list 29 is a repop part.Seems like neither the clamp (26) nor the tubes welded to the inner fender well (that supports the J-tubes) are available. Is there an area that rots more on a SWB?
    Anyone one know of sources? Thanks.

    I'm pretty sure you can get 25 direct from Porsche (in the UK for sure), and possibly 26. 29 is just plain rubber hose - find a piece that's the right dia and cut to length. Got mine from a VW Golf heater hose I think.

    2-3 weeks for #25. In Germany only right now. They apparently just did a run of 250 parts. Everything else is NLA.

    Honestly the tube is a pretty easy part to make.

    Sure, if you have the right size tube and a tube bender.

    Restoration Design is working on the body panels below the tubes. I agree, how could it have taken so long for this body part to become available? I had to make my own with a beat bag. Total PIA. I too need the clamps.
