WTB- First project
Me and Thvee - November 20th, 2012 at 07:58 PM

Hey all im basically looking for a vw beetle super or standard (not round windscreen). Ive always wanted to restore or fix a car since i was little but never had the room/time/money take your pick.
I have some money saved to do a decent project but i dont want to spend so much that i will lose out big if/when i decide to sell it. Im more interested in the learning aspect so i dont mind something with rust. Not looking to spend too much on the first project so anything above 1500 is a bit much unless its a very good base to strip back and restore rather than starting out with bits and pieces and going from there. Im in Sydney, im acctually 2 minutes away from classic vee dub supplies in Campsie. :-)

fOR A GOOD BASE $1500 IS A BIT LOW....
SAVE a few more $$$ before you buy a wreck or dead engine unit...
good luck with it ...esp. in Sydney...
