Hello!
I'm building 1303 Bug that is in an awful condition. The rear brakes made from a parts of a "Zhiguli (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ru/1/11/VAZ-2106.jpg) "-Soviet car that is very common in my country.
So most parts of an original VW rear brakes is missing in my car. Including this thing- not sure what is a proper word for it in English:

So i need it and rear brakes "adjuster" and everything except what i can buy new: brake shoes, wheel cylinder and spring kit. Please help, because i can't find these parts in my country, there is absolutely no Bugs in a junkyards.
;)

PS:can pay with PayPal.

It's simply called a backplate

probably the wrong number, but still: you could give a bit more info: The drum diameter is for one a good start to notice. Probably something like 180mm

Are the brakes ' self-adjusters' (with a wedge adjuster) or do they have the toothed-ring adjuster?

Since it's a 1303, many parts might actually fit from a Golf 1 / 2

Good luck!

No self-adjusters, and as i remember my Golf 1 it had another drums.
Found it on eBay but in US, and shipping will cost as much as a parts... :(

The rear brakes of a 1303 are the same as those from 'any' bug. nGolf items are completely different.
Do you need the drums itself as well? Since they're quite heavy..

I think I have a set of backing plates laying around. But I'm not sure, since I've thrown away some things since I got irritated of those parts laying around that I don't use anyway.... I'll take a look this weekend!

The Zhighuli you show is known as Lada over here. You rarely see a survivor, most of them got re-exported in the nineties...
