For Sale, an original one owner 62 bug. Not many genuine black bugs out there, this is complete, not messed with, runs, has a sweet motor and drive train, needs brakes doing, and will rego and roadworthy fine. There is NO ROT in this car!!!! This is amazing, the "A" pillars and pan as pictured are perfect. It has a damaged rear guard, done during delivery home (have a good rear guard sitting under back of bug as can be seen in pics) and the rear bumper is damaged, again during delivery(again, there is one for it in the pics sitting under the car).
Is complete, nothing missing, even has the wiring cover, old paint code sticker and all the old hoses from around the motor. Asking $1500 ono for the ol girl.
This is an easy resto, or do the brakes and rego it as a driver. The tyres are Michillin XZX and are in perfect cond.

LOL!!
It's an original, unmolested 45 year old bug with NO rust!!
The dents are a non issue really...


ragtopp - April 22nd, 2007 at 06:12 PM

The rear guard is dented yeh, but there is another as stated sitting under the rear of the car, if you were a good panel man, they could be repaired.
The car was delivered to Hobart new, as stated one owner, no idea on mileage, remember they only go to 99999 before back to zero, and it is 45 years old. That said it is in awesome nick, and the motor is good. Been off the road a couple of years, didnt come with books, but if you ever drive or see good cars, then this is one of them!!!

ragtopp - April 22nd, 2007 at 09:25 PM

Hey Jo, hows it going, have you put in for the apprenticeship? Hope you get it!!

The car is sold, congrats to Dubbindan, he got one real good bug.


jo_tas - April 22nd, 2007 at 09:28 PM

Hey.. going ok.. didn't get an apprenticeship there.. apparantly they're only looking at putting on senior mechanics at the moment! :(
