........for those that asked, storage is not the problem. so it can sit until someone wants to pick it up if they're keen but can not transport straight away.........whilst attending the"valla spectacular"????❗

looking over it today, made me think twice, it is in very good condition!

soft top...........







cage and side bar mounting









seats

for the unintelligent

Dont the papers only refer to the pan??

If i had a registered no name buggy could i buy this and swap the body over??
Does a no name line up with a manx for bolt holes etc??

I could do a swap on my beetle for another body.
There is no compliance plate. Was blue slipped this way no problem.
Even if it did you swap the plate over

Am i suggesting a MAJOR sin here or what??

You can swap the bodies over not a problem.

I'm sure if it had papers then Daimo would be asking more for it.

i think it's worth more, yes, been offered it too...........but.........

i go with what bizzare says,......i have been quietly looking for "another" registered buggy and am tempted to be one of those sinners with stooge papers also.........i wish those claiming to have recently engineered buggies down here would P.M me their contacts..........

if i had papers it would be going down the road regularly already😎 Jace knows my temptations for every buggy that comes up for grabs.......thanx mate.

too many projects, time to pass this one on

Looks like the soft top was made at the same place as my old one was done. 😀

mmm offers are flooding in .....

I offered $2200 and you said you had offers above that.

Now your price is $2500 and you say offers are flooding in ...

Must be a lot of people out there offering over $2200 and under $2400 ,,, wouldn;t have though there were that many people looking to buy buggies without papers that can't be registered.... oh well guess I was wrong.

Good luck with all your offers....

kinda like the seats, now I know everything has a price so give me a price I can't refuse and I'll give you some more room in your shed. Seats only though, I can't take the whole lot.
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross a road without being asked for it's motive!

whatever!.............no not "flooding"...... on the table.......nor "a lot"......as you can see my phone number above,yes people have called and offered money some i have been in contact with since, some were going to ring back to get bank details and deposit the $...........but alas.............and you ARE wrong, they are still being registered down here........and i rather thought this would make a good, cheap body replacement for a "lesser" brand buggy, running with rego anyways..........

i lowered the asking price as i did some more research and decided i was aiming for a lttle too much $ at the begining,

as you yourself know, because you were one of them,people offer the money then turn around and never to be heard from again or circumstances change......


your $2000 was matched from the start,as was your widthdrawn offer of $2200.............i also offered it to you at $2500........but none of them matter at this stage as i have idicated i may as well keep it rather than give it away for less than it's worth (to me)

i have stuck to your rules of posting the advert, why don't you extend me the same courtesy and go bag out some where else on the forum ?...........for all my 1500 + posts on the here, this is the third "for sale" i have offered, so why the bagging BRAD, when the for sales are full of "wrongly scripted" adverts and people using the forum for nothing more than to sell things..........go move forth and multiply........follow your own rules
