[FS - WA] 57 Oval On the market again
shaihulud - April 6th, 2009 at 11:27 PM

A blue 1957 oval Beetle is for sale in Wickepin in Western Australia.

The car is claimed to be in almost complete and original condition.

It has been garaged for the past few years and is claimed to be almost rust free.

Wickepin is 40km North East of Narrogin in WA and being in the middle of the wheat belt it has lived for most of its life in a very low rainfall and dry climate.

I've had some photos emailed to me, but being a compleat idiot on a computer I've had trouble posting them here.

Call Peter on 0429 882 871. He may email you some pics.

He knows what he has and how desirable it is, so his price is $8,000 negotiable.

Recently a restored 57 oval was for sale in SA for $16,000.

PLEASE NOTE.

IT'S BACK ON THE MARKET

Peter phoned me today, Friday 17 April to tell me that a firm sale fell through at the last minute.

The Oval is therefore still for sale.

If you called Peter earlier, please call him again. He has not kept the details of who called him, as he was so confident of that sale.

The price is still negotiable in the $7,000 area.

He will also consider a part trade of a good running, registered Beetle like a Super Bug or similar.

Call him only for pictures. The pics he sent me have gone weird in my email system and I can't post them here.

Richard.



DISCLAIMER.

I have put this advertisment here in my capacity as a member of the committee of the WA VW Club. I do not know this vehicle. I am not recommending it to you.

Something has happened to the pics that were emailed to me and they now won't load in my computer and I can't send them on.

If you want pics please ask Peter the seller for them.

Is that the Peter Sellers?

I hear it's sold. Was a project from what I'm told.

I don't know where everyone is getting these inflated prices for ovals from. 8-10K would seem top dollar to me for a rego'd runner. But that is just my opinion and they're worth what someone wants to pay.

See the second half of the original post.

It's still for sale.

Hope this stays in WA...

Until the sale fell through it was going to be sent to Sydney. As long as it stays in Oz, I'll be happy.
