ive decided to get rid of my dub. it was a bush basher but i got a road car to pay for now so it time for my dub to leave.
engine: 1200cc. last time i drove it, it ran but had a terrible clunking sound and lost most of it's power. that was a while ago and it probably wont start again.
gearbox still works, and we welded the diff to stop the annoying knack of it sending drive to the wheel with the least traction. therefore this wont be a car you can drive on the road.
body is fairly rusty, but still there. we chopped the front to make it more suitable for bush bashing.
the handbrake assembly has come apart, and i think there a split in the brake lines somewhere because the brakes dont work.
have spare:
- gearbox - the top is broken but the gears are still good.
- clutch plate - still good meat left
- front suspension - unknown condition
- some body panels - came from the previous beetle i owned. some panels are rusty or damaged, but some are good.
- lights - headlights, indicators etc - unknown if they work or not.
this be an ideal project for a junior (or junior at heart) wanting to learn about vw mechanics. price is $100, but negotiable. im located in bagdad, tasmania. send me a u2u or sms me (dave) on 0422 597 624 for more information
