Didnt realise 58 Beetle were electric?

(Check the add title)

All them 'volts'! Yep, those jerrys were pretty funny folk putting the engine in the back. Fair dinkum,doesn`t every one know that? And does it come with a looooong extension lead too? cheers

couldn't find the engine... lol.

awesomeness!

"i have been told that its not a classic and more as it is over 50 years old"
who is he kidding not a classic, pmsl hahahahahahaha!!!

The whole thing in good condition...... what tripe

Am I missing something? Looks a lot better than many I've seen and the price seems quite reasonable for such an early bug (if it is indeed a '58), even with the widened guards.

I get that the seller has no idea but I've bought plenty of bargains in that same situation.

methinks he's playing dumb, his other items are cars too. Looks like he and "Allen'' might be sharing sales to stay under dealer sales numbers.

On the other hand, no mention of semaphores, so maybe they don't know or, it's not a '58.

Regards,

Matt.

i love auctions that misspell the words printed on the object.

Maybe playing dumb, maybe not.

I was looking at a Type 3 wagon at a car yard years ago, & the young salesman pulled the bonnet to show me the motor.
I left without showing him where it was.

There are people who know SFA about VW,s.

Mispelling (sic) is pretty common with Volksy's...

A few years ago had a mate who was a VW trained mechanic, and when the dealership closed down he bought all the special tools, manuals and stuff and moved to a general automotive place attached to a tyre shop. After a while the manager/owner realised they were getting a fair bit more business - mostly VW's - so in an effort to grow things even more had written in big letters over their front windows "Volkswagon Specialist".
