I got lucky during the week and seen a ad in the forsale section ( free lic bug )

well today I when and got a car trailer & collected the bug .

Its a 1966 1300 , with a bit of rust in the heater channels & floor .Its missing the delux badge & thats about it

it came with

New shocks & steering dampner
New car trolly jak & stands & wheel chocks
Manual how to fix your bug
5 ltrs of oil
Some ( god look after me thingo on the dash) T < best bit .

It has not been run for two years , I put a battery in it hit the key and it started and ran like a dream .

I went dow the road to do some skids , but sad to say
nothing at all .
So its out with that motor and in with a Subaru ej20T 200hp donk .

what a day its been for me

I post some photos Sunday

I pass this one on I think to Paul , we can cut the rag top into it and fit his 1835 donk & drop it on its ass .

I am going to remove some of the bits to get my dragon going in the body section , this is a good project and worth saving from the crusher .

Did I tell you I have vw motors ?
