Hi Guys,

I'm moving to South East Brisbane in a few weeks and i'm looking for a daily driver as my other car once finished will be a bit too special to drive everywhere, and i would really like a daily driver.

I'm after something pre 65 as i already have a late beetle. Would prefer something road worthy or close to for around $1000.

Please u2u me if you can help. :bounce

Thank-you!

yepp
they called W decklid and they had different popes nose

get the lid etc later off someone needin to sell !! Beware pre 55 had a larger spring
as rare as and spring or weldjob to take olg spring needs to be factored into price...these lids are heavy

mind you it will cost u $200 plus for the lid even a roughy, sorry
xtra for nose

Thanks for the advice Neil, but i want a daily driver i can leave in the carpark without worrying about damage.

Too many people around here adding unrelated or uneeded comments in members for sale and wanted threads...

Please comment if you can genuinely help me, i appreciate any leads...

Miss vee dub, it is funny how comments can come around! by the way there is a bug in bracken ridge off of beams road...66 1300 12v sitting in his front yard in a dead end street...needs work, but I think if you spent a little more than your budget a better car will come up!

Hey Guys!

Thanks to everyone that helped me in my search for an Early beetle, i am now the proud owner of a beautiful 60's Bug! It has absolutely no rust, new paint job and new interior, it was a virtually finished project. I also managed to get another beetle for donor parts all up for $1150! Definitely pays to keep searching! I could not be happier, i've really done well! 👍
