Selling (QLD) 72 standard beetle parts preferably as a bundle
Banshee777 - September 27th, 2015 at 10:29 AM

Well enthusiasm for my impulse buy has dropped and it's time to move my project on, plus the wife has demanded the return of her patio space for summer.

I have a 1972 standard beetle for sale preferably as a bundle. It's all there as I bought it from the original owner.

Engine (1835cc)
Put back together and complete but having trouble starting it.
Crank was previously damaged
Case is well used
Cylinders and heads are reasonable,
Brand new oil pump ($60)
Will throw in an Engle 110 camshaft ($100) and a 2 week old battery ($140)
Engine is to be considered as parts only.
Transaxle is an unknown quantity.

Chassis is complete with both pans cut out in anticipation of welding in new ones.
4 x Bathurst mags, polished rims and black centres, looks like 2 of the 4 have roadworthy tyres on them. ($140). 4 original wheels with tyres also included.
Body has had some work on removing surface rust but there is still a good amount of work to be done.
Speedo, seats etc. are all there and included.
Set of tar boards as well
Fenders are reasonable, one rear has a large dent.
All glass is present including original windscreen ($40)
Will throw in a fibreglass whale tail as well ($70)
Rest of the car is in boxes as a jumble of pieces and parts.

Adding up the highlighted parts alone the total is $550, plus I paid $480 for it originally. I'd like $400 for the whole lot. Photos to follow.

Such a shame living in Adelaide when this was just what I needed.

If anyone is in Adelaide and has something similar to sell drop me a line :-)
