72 convertible beetle Ute project:
Rolling body, no motor.
This car has been registered & driven as a convertaible ute with a Subaru engine in NSW, prior to going off the road. ( last rego paper will be
provided)
Short version of along story: I bought the car from the motor car company who built it. Drove it for about two months then took it too a mates panel
shop for a “quick respray & change of colour”
After 12 moths in his shop & paying him $5K, he went bankrupt & shot through, this is how I got the car back. & this is how it has sat since.
We all have one VW that’s breaks our heart, this is mine …. When I bought it , it was a killa car, turned heaps of heads, and drove great.
Now it is just a reminder of how I got screwed over, buy a so called friend.
I hate to sell it, but I am moving the new family out of NSW and at this stage can’t really take it with me( wish i could).
So as they say “ my loss can be your gain”, just think what it would take to get a standard beetle to this stage & have it comply to the tuff NSW
standards.
You also get the French “le man” gauges , the bucket seats, and any other boxes of stuff I have too go with the car.
I am asking $2000.00 ono.

hey, u said it had a subaru motor in it before?
so would a subaru motor be able to be put straight back in ? along the lines of the motor u have for sale in the parts section?
Cheers,
Matt.
It had an EA 81 in it last time, my plan was to put in the EJ20t.
it will fit no dramas, as there is plenty of room, dont have an adaptor plate, so you will need one of those.

Oh yeah, where you see the spots of primer, are NOT rust repairs, the old paint job had lots of star's & shapes on it, the primer bits are where they
were.
car is SUPER soild.:thumb
That thing has TONS of potential 
Yeah, i agree ...:thumb
Free bump...good luck mate. 
Much as I hate to admit it... that thing looks tight! 
Free bump again! :bounce
free bump, i was very tempted wrong, timing for me
i think i would have cried when it turned up in my drive after spending the 5k...
it looks like it has such great potential. i hope someone is able to bring it back to being the head turned it deserves to be.
that thing would be a BURNOUT MACHINE with a subie in there....or that 4.4l Leyland that is for sale in the parts section 
what a hot rod my mind is going 100 mh now
is this car still for sale
yup, still for sale :thumb
Damn! You havn't sold it yeet?? I thought this would have been snapped up.
Pimp my ute! That's mad! Good luck with your sale. To whomever buys it...you would have time to do it justice before the Nationals in April or just
drop a donk in and Rat it...GO hard and Right On!
can you tell me how long that tray is?
is there access to what was originally the back seat area?
thanks
Its sold, cheers Robert, hope you enjoy it ... sad to see it go , but i can tell it has gone to a good home.
Looking forward to getting started on it.. Thanks Finn..
