I have no idea!
Found that picture on the internet. Think on Desert Rides. Did a quick check but couldn't find the builder.
I like the style.
Another option is a new gearbox bell housing.
They are made for Audi 5E engine and V6.
See if I can found more info.

Did some surfing on the internet and found out that the bell housing is an "original" VW part. The number is BCY 301 107A.
Checked with our local VW dealer but he couldn't order the part.
Its only available in South Africa.
Any South African Off Roaders that has more info???

Thanks, BART

The Bellhousing you're looking for is from a South African Transporter which came with Audi 5 cylinder engines.

It is a VW part but only available from South Africa. The part number doesn't exist anywhere else.

I have a couple of these bellhousings but am using them. They crop up on german ebay from time to time at sensible money.

Email me at [email protected] for more info. I can give you the SA part number along with the other assicated part numbers which go with it.

Hi
I am in South Africa and am in the process of selling my farm and am planning to build basic baja's to rent out to tourists. Will be starting in the new year. Spent 6 months in Amsterdam in 2002. The Dutch girls are TALL and slim. Good 6 months.
Anyway, I can source a bellhousing and find out freight costs.
cheers
Roy

adrian63, welcome to the STF off road forum, glad you could make it. First off raving about spending 6 months in Amsterdam does no good without pictures

Second in your own thread (Go ahead and start one) would like to hear more about your Baja's you plan on building and how your setting your business up. But anyway thanks for teasing us, look forward to hearing more about you.

Hey Adrian, also welcom on the STF.

Good to hear good things about Holland.
My wife is tiny and willing. Good 16 years........

It would be great if you can check availability, shipping, etc. for me.
The bell housing is an "original" VW part. The number is BCY 301 107A.

Thanks for all the Help.

Well, I spoke to the VW agents in George yesterday, and the part no. BCY 301107A meant nothing to them. They told me to supply them with the engine and gearbox numbers, "and we will make sense of it". Not sure if the housing is available new any more.

But also spoke to a bloke specialising in conversions. He understood the request. The one he had was cracked, but I must call him next week when he gets back from Johannesburg.

I stay in a small town, Albertinia, about 100km west of George. So no local large suppliers. Should have info in a few days.

If it helps, I am looking at a bell housing right now, and part number on it is BCY 301107A. Bell housing is South African, for mating Audi 5-cyl to Vanagon/Kombi transmission. Source was "Parts Place" in Detroit area, brought in to support sales of AEL engine special purchase, in 2004 I think.

Well, there is a bell housing. The bad news is the bloke wants SAR 1,500 for it. @ 1 euro=10rand, means 150 euros.

The worse news is that DHL quotes SAR 2,341 for 5kg freight to the Netherlands. Bell housing delivered for 500 euros? Sounds like a lot.
Unless you don't tell the wife what it costs.

Hello Adrian, is the weight of the package 5kg ?
I will do some searching if I can find a cheaper option for the shipping.

Thanks for the great help, BART
