Here we go again ...

i have my eye on something very "special", so need to raise some cash ASAP ... so i have decided to sell some of my "fav things" - all 3 of my Beetles ..

this is the first of the three that i am going to post up.

Seller's Name – Rod W
Suburb / Post Code – Annangrove, NSW 2156
Item Description – See Description Below
Condition – See Pix & Description Below
Item Cost - Best Offer Above $2650
Car is Unregistered - Engine Number: 2786873, Chassis number 2235214






It is a real country car - classic "Barn Find" - A 1959 "Jupiter Grey" Beetle - A Very Hard To Find Model In This Condition - The Second Owner Has Had This Car For 42 Years - Shedded Last Four Years.

Totally original with semaphore indicators. This is a 95% "rust free vehicle" country car - There is a small amount of rust at the bottom of the drivers side pillar - and the usual dents and scrapes that you would expect on a car of this age.

It would have to have one of the most IMMACULATE floor pans of any beetle this age in the land. The prev owner advised that the 36 HP runs like a clock - but as the car is in storage & the battery is flat, i have not had it running.

The back Bumper is missing, as is the original drivers seat. There is no petrol tank connected (unless you count the upside down fruit juice bottle as a petrol tank ..... The rest of the trim is in G/C. The headlining has some tears. The sunvisors & floor mats are missing.

One semaphore has a broken lens. The Left front guard is incorrect & the bonnet (Boot) has a small dent, but should be very fixable. It still has it's original 6 Volt Radio in an unmolested dash. Spare bumper, guard and seat.


This is a very solid, original motor, original rust free pan beetle - A pretty solid country vic car that would be a very good basis for a restoration - Either restore or leave as is, as a "RAT LOOK" driver. Certainly not a hard car to get back on the road.



The car is here in Sydney (Annangrove, NSW 2156) - This car cost me $2500 to buy - and another $650 to get it to Sydney. So i guess best offer above $2650 ... and closest offer to $3000 gets the car ...


genuine buyers can pm me (Rod) for more info and a time to view the car if required. You can also call me on my mobile (0414 592813) - just leave a voice message (please state what car you are interested in, as i am selling several beetles ATM) and i will get back to you ASAP


Thanks for looking guys

Thanks mate .... has had a clean since the pix were taken, but probably could do with another ... thanks very much for the offer of the vac anyway ...

it is a pretty honest car ... and a pretty reasonable price for what it is ... very liittle rust, good motor and gearbox ... great pan ... just needs a good tidy up and a little bit of lovin' to get it on the road
