Advertised for 3rd party..
Currently sitting behind a shop in Oxford Street, these two lovely ladies have seen better times.. Both are still ruuning though and they come with one spare engine. Great project vehicles for a start up VW enthusiast and priced well to sell!!!

Take one or take both.. Here is the quote from the owner who wants them taken by a VW carer..

Orange is a VW L and blue/yellow is VW S, Unregistered as is where is.
Plus spare engine complete. Both running..

U2U Rob in the first instance
$800 for one or take them both for $1400

The 2 tone looks 76 - big tail lights, narrow nose, flat screen

but the other i an guessing is a 72?? - a 1302 anyway.
High front end (struts) small tail lights and a flat screen (cant see the dash)

Looks like a Britax sun roof??

You're probably right.. I am not a beetle whiz (in fact I have a 67 sitting in my driveway also that is for sale if anyone wants it)..

Both of these cars are runners by the way.. They could be back on the road with a bit of TLC

I went and looked at these bugs today.. It is honestly sad to see two bugs sitting rotting.. I reckon they are both saveable.. the two tone (74) seems to be in better nick but the orange one (76) has a neat fold back factory roof in it.. APPARENTLY THEY BOTH RUN!!

The owner needs to clear them out pretty soon.. He is going to call in the scrap dealer.. I told hime to be realistic on price and got him down to $500 with one spare motor thrown in.. THAT IS FOR BOTH!!!

If I had a big shed or acreage, I'd grab them both.. At least just to save them.. I don't I'm afraid and so hope that someone on here can part with the cash and pick them up..

Anycase.. I've pushed them... All I can do.. The 74 has wide stock rims and the 76 has mags..

Cheers
Rob

Mate.. just get in there and do your best.. The number for the guy who owns them is in the thread.. he is getting into a bit of strife with them and needs to clear.. fast.. I reckon 500 spondoolicks is about the $$..

Unfortunately, the guy these bugs belonged to missed a few calls from interested AVD members. His Dad died a few days after this post started and wasn't around for a while.. Anycase Doug is back at work and still keen to offload these asap.. Call him, take a look, negotiate.. Both very goods resto's..

Hi

They look like 1300 Beetles to me, swing axles, drum brakes & 1300 CC twin port motor. If the 2 tone one was a 76 it would have blinkers in the front bar. Any bug that gets saved from the crushers is a good thing, like water front land, they dont make anymore them.

Spot on Steve, I looked and they are both 1300 swingers, not '76ers. Both are parts cars only, I'm afraid...
