    What year of Special are you looking for parts for? I may have some of the pieces you need if I knew what year they need to be.

        I have a rear fender ( mudguard)from an 80 Special, but I have adapted a tail light from a 79 Special to it. It looks just like stock, and the light is in the correct position. I did that because I have a 79 Special seat on my 80 Special. I recently replaced the chrome fender with one froma Midnight Special, and I grafted a Standard tail light to it so now I have a two bulb tail light on my bike. it can be seen much better than the one bulb tail light of the Special. Still interested?

          is the chrome good, also do you have the fixing pin that goes through the mudguard and frame to hold in place.
          Do you have a price including postage, and can i pay paypal?
          Thanks, Gary.

            Fixing pin????

            The fender on a Special is not hinged ,like that of a Standard. It bolts to the plastic inner fender, and to the frame rail near the rear turn signals. The chrome is good except for one little spot where my tool bag rested on it. It's 27 years old, so it won't look like new. Have you tried Andreas Wiess? He wheels n' deals a lot of XS parts.

                Just click on the members tab at the top of this page. Then click on the 'A' listing that comes up near the top of the page. I believe he is on the second page of the A listings, as andreashweiss. you will be able to click on his profile and from there you can PM or email him. OR he has a parts for sale ad right here, and you can contact him from there. For mine, I'll take $30 US for both mudguard and tail light.

                  $30 sounds great to me, would you be able to post it, Could you get a postage price for me, and i will send you a paypal payment if you accept paypal, and i will add a bit extra to cover their extortionate charges, regards gary.

                          Ok, no problems, if you could pack and weigh it for me, and also measure the box in centimeters
