What sort of kombi are looking for, what sort of coin are you asking for it?
"Obey your Dreams"!

65 11 wnd Split "The Cross".
6? coming very soon!!!!
Very cool car.
Was this the car that was on ebay a year or so ago?
That's the one from Scorpio motors?
Looking to swap for Kombi (1969 - 1972) - not looking to sell though! 🙂
You really are limiting your options. Not all kombi drivers wants beetles, or are willing to swap (a lowlight at that). Standard beetles admittedly arent the most desirable. I do like their simplicity and there are less numbers on the roads due to them not being as popular originally when sold.
I would suggest being open to sell, and then buying yourself a kombi otherwise you may be waiting a while.

Has any of the body externals been painted in 2 PAC?thanks
Ash - thanks for the advice but (personally) i disagree - theres enough chrome and "bling" out there and its good to see the original Standards, as basic and as rare as they are, still out there testifying to a simpler, purer form of the Veedub.....for me it shows the true beauty of the Bug, and a period in Veedub history, without the make-up and earings that comes with all the chrome and extras.
At the end of the day.....each to their own and we all own the Veedub that resonates with us. Im not interested in selling her and, if the right Kombi comes along, I will consider swapping her purely because of family needs. If no swap is possible, thats absolutely fine - I'll keep my baby girl for the next 17.5 years until my little man is old enough to enjoy her beauty as well! 🙂
If you know of, and if anyone out there is interested in a swap, I'd be greateful to hear from you.
Peace and love to you all! 🙂
You say original? So does that mean that all of the paint on the outside of the bug was applied at the Vw factory in Australia?I would be intrested in an answer.
What exactly are you disagreeing with, the fact I said I love their simplicity? Read what I wrote... 👍
We have seen your car around a lot as we have only just moved from Mount Nebo , it's looks quite tidy from what we could see 👍

Too true rasta baby
hang onto the standard and buy a low liight
My standard was my mum and dads and in the family since new.
They bought it because they couldnt afford any other. I love reserve tank, 6volt and a drizzle of cool
keep it!

Hmmm.... I hear what you're all saying - it'd kill ne to see her go but if a decent Kombi came along, I would swap - family needs must. Of course if I had the coin, I'd keep her and get a Kombi as well....but I don't so a swap is the only way to go right now!
Coletrickle - I do think there has been a respray at some point in her life - not sure if it's 2pac...wouldn't know how to tell....:/
Thanks mate,Im pretty sure I've looked at this bug and the respayed bits put me off other than that she's a pretty nice standard,I'm dreaming but there's still some orignal paint standards out there that's what I'm looking for.Standards arnt for most people,they just don't get it!best of luck.glad you know what you've got some people get a standard and put chrome or worse still flames on it!
Quick update - would be willing to swap for a later Kombi (highlight) with a Type 1 engine
Look at the killer split 66 swap at the start of this forum....he wants a 63 beetle part trade....😢
Ged
Yeah.....saw the '66 Splitty......he'd probably want my car AND a small mortgage to swap!! 🙂
😂
Ok I have a 70 lowlight microbus, does run and drive but needs work. I would swap you that for your beetle
In Sydney
Thanks Mikki
