Unfortunately circumstances mean I have to sell my beetle.
It was owned and built by a well known moderator of this site.
I purchased it 4 years ago from him.
It is not your standard super. It has had many things done to it and has been a daily driver for most of its life. It is also the rack and pinion
model so steers just like a new car.
I have used the information from when I bought it and added any extras that have been done since owning it.
Name: Adam Spears

Oh no. It is such a nice car. It was great when Barry had it, and you have also looked after it well. Someone will get a great car, and I reckon a bargain at that price

Well done.
Where is it headed?
Cool. I hope the new owner looks after it as well as you have. Is it staying in Sydney?
Hey guys,
It's going to a good home. It's staying in Sydney just up the road from you Barry.
So you might see it getting around.
