there are some on ebay from time to time.

getting them worked is ALOT of $$ because of both sides needing worked. Larry has done a few, good work, BUT not cheap. and i would worry about a non-vw guy working them, they always seem to screw something up because they are not familiar.

i've seen several different approaches to this. i took a body shop class at the local college, and learned enough to get a driver in shape. pay some one to straighten your old ones $$$$. find a skilled vw enthusiast to teach/assist you. keep watching ebay (shipping $$$$), the samba (shipping $$$$), swap meets, etc for decent replacements. i have not seen any reproduction gates, that doesn't mean they don't exist, it simply means i haven't seen any. you could also go with custom built gates or wooden stake bed. it all depends on what you want, cubic $$$$s available, and your resourcefulness.
