Good ole fashioned panic bidding:smirk:

mmmm.... that complete (rat) one sold for $1500 wasn't it? this one has nothing in the way of bling (or function) not even a steerning wheel or pedal box... and a serious case of cancer wonder what its worth (or what it'll reach).

is that the front of another one i see in the second pic.

oh, and it sounds like its not on a cb pan with a cb front end. seller sounds like he knows his stuff and there is no mention of the pan. i wouldnt be assuming the pan its on is anything more than a rusty old beetle thing. if anyones keen, i would ask the queastion.


vsleepy - August 12th, 2006 at 01:24 AM

yeah looks like the front of another.. this one was possibly the parts car... I'm going to have a look at it tomorrow to ascertain how original or complete it may be. will take some piccys.

Kinda- there are a few differences


vsleepy - August 12th, 2006 at 12:13 PM

and ideas on how they differ, ie how could i ID it (not really knowing a beetle pan backwards). or what should i take photos of?

After ( helterskelter400 ) comments, it made me start thinking that I had seen these two county buggys on the AVD forum before.

And bingo.....................

$2300 for both cars
