Sorry Peter:  They are gone.  I just bought them for a friend who restores 
Porsches.  I didn't make any money, let him have them for what I paid for them. 
 Was $200 for the rears and $200 for the fronts.  Probably worth more than 
that, but a reasonable swap meet type price.  I was just trying to keep up with 
values was the reason for the question.  All of these hard to find parts (and 
busses) just keep going up and up and it's hard to keep up with what some of 
this stuff is really worth.  Samba is good but it is also weird.  Continually 
see used and repop stuff on there that you can buy from BFY/Vintage 
Parts/Wolfsburg West and other suppliers for much less.
   
  Point being, it pays to keep up with suppliers and values.

  Sammie,
I don't know what they are worth, but I would be interested if they are still 
available.

Will:  or anyone else; do you have a realistic estimate of the value of a set 
of rear 356B Porsche brakes complete including backing plates except for wheel 
cylinders.  Good condition externally with no apparent shoe wear on the drum.  
Also, same question for a set of front 356A brakes complete including wheel 
cylinders. 
  
Bus content:  These would go great on a barndoor.
