1963 Volkswagen Beetle
I purchased this car 2yrs ago, swayed by it's mean appearance. Unfortunately due to the state it was in when it was purchased, the commuting I put it through using it as my daily drive proved to be a little too much for it. For it to be a realistic daily drive it required some attention. So, I've spent the last year making this car what I'd always wanted a strong, reliable rat.
First the method that was employed to lower the vehicle was anything other than safe. A whole new front end fixed that. ~3k for that.
Then the engine started having a few issues along with some pretty savage oil leaks. Fixing one thing lead to the discovery of something else that required attention and again - you know how it goes. Almost another 3k solved that.
So following that saga, here she is. Never been better.
- Fully reconditioned original engine - tuned perfectly
- Brand new narrowed adjustable front beam
- New front shocks
- Wide wheels on rear + white walls (inserts)
- Original interior (with rat style hessian repair job)
- Extractors with Fatboy exhaust
- All rust repaired/painted
- Custom installed twin air horn
- Short shift kit.
- Old school aftermarket steering wheel
- Matt black in colour (if any rust appears in the future just convert it and paint over yourself, same for scratches etc)
- 9 months NSW rego
- RAT-63V plates included in sale
- Brand new NGK plugs/leads
- Brand new air filter
- Brand new clutch cable
- 12 volt conversion
- Kill switch

it is on carsales.com.au for $7250
Sorry guys, haven't been online in a while.
As Paul stated above the car is listed on carsales at $7,250.
However, I am negotiable. I have spent about $7k on the car so I'm hoping to get as close to that as I can.
I've had a few offers but am in no rush to sell.
So if your keen PM me your offer and we can talk.
Cheers,
Max
Max,
Have you had any takers?
Had a few offers but it's still for sale.
Are you able to PM me some interior pics of the car?
I plan on adding some here over the weekend.
Cheers
Wish I had the funds right now! Would you mind if I popped over and had a look at it anyway? I can't buy it but I'd love to see it up close?

According to the carsales advertisement it is a 1200
Yeah i figured that was the case 🙂 I've been looking at so many of late I thought for some reason it was a 1600cc

Hi. I'm trying to do the same thing to my '64. Can you tell me where you bought your wide wheels?
