Posting for a friend of mine (Noel) who's getting into roundy roundy racing, but yet to take the plunge on the forums.

Basically after a beetle that's either already track prepped or very close to... think a couple of weekends work to be able to run hillclimbs safely.

- Year not important - prefer BJ & IRS but would consider a Super or L.
- Needs to be a Type1 engine, but doesn't need to be engine - healthy 1600 or larger fine.
- Likewise healthy stock box
- Body should be solid and presentable, but doesn't have to be anything flash.
- Interior completely unimportant as it's going to be removed.
- Cage would be great if it's log-booked or meets current CAMS, otherwise prefer not.

Basically think someone who's been a VW dude for years (currently drives a sweet stocko 64 and a bay camper), and altho capable of building from a stocker just doesn't have the time. Noel's got a budget but its a good one for getting a solid starting point - he knows stuff and is realistic on values of things.

Obviously anything over the above that's benefit for hillclimb and sprints is a bonus.

What do peeps have or know about ???

Contact me via PM or mobile 0412 181 561 (I'm in Morningside 4170, but consider anywhere East coast for the right car)

Hi Dave,

Was talking to a mate today who told me he had purchased a beetle from the usa, the car was built and raced in the bull runs (similar to the cannonball run) and was built with exceptional details, The car is street built and is due in qld shortly.
I know it has roll cage, full disc brakes and plenty spent on other mods and motor, he was waiting to get final shipping costs but thought it would be around the 15k mark??

If you want more info send me a pm, you can also google bull beetle on you tube
