Its amazing how attached you can get to a car!!!
After taking my kombi to the mechanic and hearing the bad news of how much its going to fix her.. i decided that i have to sell her!!! 🙁
i didnt think it would be this hard to sell her but it seems i have become very attached!! ive been having a few teary moments thinking what it will be like without her (i dont like the thought of it).... oh its soo sad.. anyways nimbin mardi grass will be my last trip.. then we'll be letting her go to her next journey....

What do you expect. The cars got character, and everyone with a heart loves them. I do! And everyday I think about owning one (Day dreaming), yet i still aint got one.
Anyone willing to give away a beetle to a fellow lover? (I've only got 5 dollars after spending a fortune on an electric guitar, which I regret doing [sometimes]).

If you keep putting it down it may be impossible to sell LOL mitchl
23 windows ...8 too many!
One of the heads has to be replaced, i cant remember what he said was wrong with it, but wasnt starting or running properly..
i think whats also making me sad too is cause i just quit my 'proper' job and was doing the markets in the kombi and was trying to save some money to do some travelling in the kombi.. but that has all changed now!! ahh well life goes on!!
if anybody has a casual job for me on the sunny coast that would be lovely thanks!!!

whatever you do, don't sell. you will never forgive yourself.
save up money. put up ads. get parts cheap.
if you sell, the car will become one of those you tell the kids about - the one you sold in a fit of madness.
early 60s beetle for sale - ex bush basher - spares - $100 or offers
get a manual, and start fixing it yourself..........you will learn so much, and save heaps, especially if you are pov and thinking of travelling. It really isn't as scary as it seems.
just post on the forum for help in your area and cheap parts... dont give up the kombi! live the dream!

https://www.facebook.com/FlatFourMy kombi needed a new engine so it sat in the backyard for 12 months until I had saved up enough to get a new one, I also sourced most of the other parts I needed from the forum...Don't give up on her, there is plenty of help and resources out there ! 🙂
GO MANLY!!
kara... i know the feeling.
cherry bug had been giving me the sh*ts with so many repairs and bad luck bruisings for the past year, i was all ready to give her up and part her out... even made a mention of it to guage interest.
cried my eyes out for a whole day when i made the decision...
and now shes sitting under my parents carport, getting started lovingly every week by my dad, and getting driven down the road every 2 weeks, why? because i couldnt bring myself to sell her, and my parents finally realised it would be a stupid idea.
now im slowly saving up to fix her up really well, taking my time and learning all about how things work.
i get around on a bike now (even home at midnight!!) because thats a "sacrifice" im willing to make to save up and fix my car properly.
what im trying to say is... dont sell the kombi... you wont stop crying if you do :cry
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.
BWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH BOOOHOOOOOOO I LOVE MY VWS!
