Hi Guys,
Have come across a barn find original 1956 Ragtop Oval window beetle.
Just curious to see how much they are worth, it has original panels all windows, engine not running.. Interior is all torn as is rag top,
Any help is greatly appreciated

A few variables to consider before accurate pricing. I always work back from what it will be worth fully restored and minus what it will cost to get it there. Condition, originality matching numbers and rarity all are then thrown into the mix. But at the end of the day its what the BUYER is willing to pay that sets the price not the arseclowns on the sideline telling you what they think its worth. My2c👍

I've got a piece of string here! How long is it?

Need some pics and numbers is it a graft in rag? Is it a Britax rag?

What is the body like? What's missing?

Location adds freight costs too as we'l if it is not running or can be pushed ie needs rims and tyres. Lots of freighters Bork at cars they cannot drive and charge accordingly

Luftmeister. Arseclowns we gotta talk!

My two cents worth

Cheers

We picked it up today anyway, haven't had a chance to upload pics at this stage.
It was one of those spur of the moment things! Seen it pulled out of a shed after a property had been sold, the owner was going to send the old girl to scrap!!
Couldn't let that happen..
