Wow... those stripes on the side are different. What are they, pinstripes?

Looks pretty tidy, good luck with the sale! 🙂

Yeah, pinstripes. I don't really notice them any more!

He is a pretty tidy beast... I drove him for 9 months while Wolf was under resto at Vollkommen Art. The rebuilt motor since then is a huge improvement though 🙂

I'm really hoping he sells, Grandpa is giving me a commission 😉 (he's somewhat deaf, so he can't deal with the phone calls easily).

I hope he won't be too sad to see it go. As long as it gets a good home! 😉

Hi Jay

Thats a nice looking car. The price is good after some of the heaps ive seen for similar money.

It may have a Build Date 5/75 but 1342 97004 is a 1974 chassis number and 1975 L Bugs had the indicators in the front bumper. It may have sat around at Clayton for a while.

Steve

I tried opening the thread. Hopefully it will stay open. If it closes again, I will look at it - definitely a bug.

Price has been dropped to $3500.

Surely someone must be interested 🙂 This is a VERY tidy L Bug.

Ha, that's a good idea. Probably should have read it a little better.

Thanks for the heads up!!
