The 1200 motor is a sweet little engine with more than enough power for what you can legally do.
Also seems very cheap on petrol.
good find!

hi steve, it seems u definately cant help it, i reckon u should buy a new ghia as well
Joel ·
good score
aside from the engine, indicators, bumpers, steering wheel and grab handle looks pretty original
cant be to many more like this left out there

Late '59 Beetles, as well as early'60s, had the dished steering wheel - and short rear torsion bars, front anti-roll bar,etc. Have you checked wheels and glass for dates? It may even be a fully-imported one.
Cheers, Greg

Dude if I had the money, space and no 59 Resto sitting in the garage I'd be tempted. Bloody good find tho 😉
oh, have you got a d-ring horn push? just off the top of me head there 🙂
vwsteve ·
$3750

rexy wrote:$3750
$3750 😀 I'd be happy and a smile on me face but then the wife would cut me balls off before throwing me off a cliff. Still very tempting 😉
vwsteve ·
you could buy it for her😂
psimitar ·
😂 now there's an idea but the way she drives she'd kill it within 6 months 😂
vwsteve ·
you can put a bigger motor in it then🙂

Hi guys, I've been talking to Steve & need some help, if I buy this bug can someone help me with storage space & some care pls? How long, not sure. Reason is I'm not based in Australia. I will move the bug once I get a place for it. Thx.
Pumba ·
I have room to store the bug,the only problem is im in nsw,sorry i couldnt be more help,good luck with it cheers shane.
vwsteve ·
I am very surprised this car has not sold yet, does no one want a rustfree 59 bug, this is a rare oportunity, unless people like rust.....
vwsteve ·
ive got some interest from people who would like to chop and modify it, anyone out there who wants to keep it original please buy it before it gets modified, be a bit of a shame otherwise
vwsteve ·
btw, it has a fuel guage and oil pressure guage fitted alsoand the fuel tap still works too.
vwsteve ·
Took this for a spin around a few blocks today, drives fine, waiting for someone to grab a rustfree bargain!
volumex ·
Steve, have you still got this for sale??
vwsteve ·
yes still available
vwsteve ·
Finally someone has scored a really good bug, sold pending payment.
