utiler - June 28th, 2007 at 07:49 PM

Hi Guys, My mum asked me to help here sell her 1955 black VW for restoration and I have found my way here!! can anybody point me in the right direction of the best way forward... She decided a few years ago that she is getting to old to restore it herself and besides doesn't have much time!!

Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Andrew

Sarcasm/tongue in cheek remarks are always hard to effectively portray on a forum! Me thinks Craig is being tongue in cheeky. :lol:


kroozzn63 - June 29th, 2007 at 09:47 AM

im allways to slow i just want to see it pics please


koolkarmakombi - June 29th, 2007 at 09:54 AM

Craig did a tron and turned himself into the machine code to track it down...:spin:


dvs_vw - June 29th, 2007 at 11:30 AM

its probably a gee up, it probably doesn't exist, bet we'll never hear from him again :rolleyes:

Hopefully it does exist though, and is in Brissie somewhere:D

C'mon Andrew, spill the beans, dish it up and let everyone know the details!


Craig Torrens - June 29th, 2007 at 12:00 PM

Easy really.....you just send a u2u to the person selling giving them your contact number and they call you........easy really!

And the admins should be able to see that is what I did :lol::lol:


Dasdubber - June 29th, 2007 at 12:16 PM

....or another conspiracy theory is Craig IS ACTUALLY "utiler" and he's just 'messing with our minds maaaaan' :?:

:alien


Dasdubber - June 29th, 2007 at 12:17 PM

oh and by the way as a moderator I don't check anyone's U2Us.

While waiting for the pics how about chucking up some details?

Early or late 55, condition, rust, all parts complete or not, rough price, is it in bits or together etc etc?

Maybe a mod should move this to for sale too!

is that a pic of it?
how much did it sell for??


MickH - June 29th, 2007 at 03:39 PM

Yes,they are some pctures of it.The car HAS NOT sold.I'll post more pictures on the weekend when Andrew takes some. Looks like it would be a good buy for someone though...an outback car so it lives where it's nice and dry.......:!:


utiler - June 29th, 2007 at 03:42 PM

Hey all,
Yes that's it!! [Thanks for the help in getting it on the forum Micheal.]
Will be taking pics over the weekend and will post them then. Nobody has bought it at all so if you are interested, give me a call over the weekend......

0409 484 987 mobile.....

Cheers,
Andrew


dvs_vw - June 29th, 2007 at 03:56 PM

don't let it go for some silly low amount, work out what you think its worth and stick to it, plenty of people will pay top dollar if its the right amount, if you are in no rush, don't sell it cheap!


Craig Torrens - June 29th, 2007 at 05:08 PM

Damn the fun is over ...................at least we have some info now :smirk:


utiler - June 29th, 2007 at 05:36 PM

No, it wasn't going to be given away.... thanks for the advice. I thought it was a special little thing......
Anyway, once I post the new pics early next week, I am happy for you guys that are genuine to call me to discuss further.

Thanks your help and direction to you all, you blokes almost convert a man to join the club!!!!
Ah, well I know where there is a cute little 1955.....

Cheers, Have a good weekend.
Andrew
