Yes I did, I contacted the eBayer with the No. he left on the ad, he told me what he wanted, and I paid it. I then drove it for 2 days and 1000 kms back to Sydney with nothing more than some suspension tweeks and a new set of sparkplugs. As I stated, I have other VW's I need to sort out immediately, and I can't afford to keep everything I want. Are you interested in buying it? I'm sure you will make the return journey back to Brisbane no worries, and if you're quick you can still use the cleared Qld rego inspection papers I got with the sale. 😉

Hey I'm sorry i beat you to it, I think you'd be surprised at what I ended up paying. The seller wasn't letting it go for any less than I paid, (The starting price was way off) It owes me more than I will probably get back for it after flights, petrol, time taken off work etc... Besides, prices are always negotiable, make me an offer you never know.

And no I don't have a lot of cars, I thought parting it out was a way for someone else to get a good shell or bits, if they couldn't afford the whole thing. I need to sort out a Lowlight I'm committed to, simple as that.

Yeah that was me. I had the permit for an extra day so I took it throught the Galston Gorge & out to Annangrove to see how it handled through some twisty stuff. Needs some minor tweeks setting it up, but it's massively better than a swinger. That's why I pm'd you to get some bits. Either way I'm setting a Beetle up for track duty this year.

I'm a bit surprised at the lack of interest in this.....

Plenty of people seem to jump all over rusted out, patched up, non running, basketcase ovals for similar money. This little ripper actually drives as well, And it passed it's QLD inspection first time. It's registerable.

For those of you on here who are actually looking for a decent oval, you are missing out on a good deal. You can lead a horse to water... Bugger it, I may just keep it. Good luck finding all the stuff this has for the price!

Oh yeah I almost forgot, Bump.

Thanks for all the positive comments, off to eBay tomorrow so last chance to get a bargain before it goes into the public domain.

I'm happy to sell it to Aussieveedub forum members for $8,500 with the genuine 16x6 Fuchs (Porsche part numbers on all wheels) This is less than I paid a few weeks ago

Or $7,500 without wheels. Last chance....Bumpity f*#kin bump. 🤪

Maybe it's just a case of bad timing... Those who want one either already have one, need to sell something first or just don't have the cash.

Anyway as much as I would like to keep it, The money is needed elsewhere, Oh well easy come, easy go....

The photo posted by VDUBXTC is the same car. That was the old rego plate, and before that, the plate was ASH.057. I have receipts going back to the mid nineties, from when the car was originally built. I have also spoken to someone who had it in his family when it was originally red and on the Oval pan, before it was done up by Ash and put on an IRS Pan. The whole car was stripped to bare metal and it was extremely solid.

It is definitely a 57 and has always been so. The other oval pictured by GOLD60 is on a swinger pan with short axles. There is no way 7 inch wide teledials are going to fit under stock Beetle guards on an IRS pan without some MAJOR mods to the axle lengths, semi trailing arms, springplates etc.... That's an extremely tasty looking Oval though.😎

I thought the car looked familiar.
In the mid-90's, I remember this car running around, the upper Northshore in Sydney.
I met the owner @ the drive thru bottlo in St.Ives.
The color coded 16 inch Fuchs looked great, and so too, the tarten themed door panels.
I do remember, that two hopped up Beetles, make a nice racket, when starting & rolling out of a drive thru bottle store!
