far out i get sick of seeing that kinda crap on ebay
atleast half the vws on ebay the owners reckon have genuine milage under 100k cos thats waht the speedo says
even nanna bugs that were only driven to church and stored for years are well over 100k by now
why would something with 8k need a 009 fitted?

You guys make me laugh, cant get away with nothing can they? Bugger was just about to put my original 71 Fasty on ebay with low low 1092 miles, cmon thats what the speedo says!

Not sure where it says it needs a new 009 but I loved this part in the description

Been stored for many years and speedo shows 8053 miles, the previous owner had all original paperwork with the car but left it in the glove box and the local mice decided to set up camp and use it for their doona's!

Isn't it supposed to be the dog that eats the paperwork?
Looks good though, I wonder what the heater channels look like.

shouldn't it be 36hp ?...........not a 1200.

My 60's model is a 36er


Joel - December 23rd, 2007 at 10:13 PM

if it is a 60 its a pretty late one
im pretty sure that style upholsty, padded visors and half half lights started with 40hp
its def a 40hp originally tho - no choke knob on dash :dork:
