hi everyone!

I'm very new to all things VW but have been a long time lover of the Beetle, wanted one since I was 16 but only now have gotten around to it 🙂

I'm looking for some advice on where to buy a cheap fixer-upper Beetle in WA, under $1000 but still running fairly mechanically sound - my partner and I have decided to take it on as a joint project. Is this just a pipe dream or am I not looking in the right places? 🙂

any advice would be much appreciated, thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
Not sure you will find something in that price range,all complete but you never know.Pop over to the Buying and Swapping Cars section and put in an ad.
Alot of people check that out,you might find what your looking for.
Good Luck.

GOOD LUCK, best hope is the quokka on a thursday, or try gumtree, they come on there but not often, then theres the old fave e-bay!!
theres a late bay on gumtree needs a motor, rough, miles from perth but only a grand! great project for someone wanting to learn!
