Sadly, after much deliberation, we have decided to wreck our 1970 beetle. We were going to rebuild, but unfortunately we are not in a position to do
this at the mo.....
Damaged right front quarter panel, right front wheel guard, & bonnet. Slight damage to right front door. Damaged front beam. Cracked
windscreen.
Almost all other parts available. All in good to excellent condition. This was a great beetle and a good looker - we are sorry to finally decide to
say farewell. No visible rust. Floor pan in great condition. All other panels no dents (left door has what I called a 'bullet hole' (some sort of
small hole that has been patched with some sort of resin ??).
Gearbox in good (to excellent) condition.
Most interior parts/knobs/bits/trims/things available (apart from some we have snavelled as spares for our new beetle). Low back seats - covers in
excellent condition but one back may be wonky due to impact. Back seat perfect condition. Door trims good condition (all brown).
We also have a 71 superbug (which we bought to rebuild the 1970 above - but that was before we found out they don't swap) but want to sell this as a
whole. Will sell for parts if no interest in it complete. 1500 engine (which was in 1970) was excellent to us. Please express any interest in this
bug (whole or parts) and we will keep you in mind....
Have pics of both beetles that I can email any interested parties....

By the way....1970 is not a superbug (thread subject heading looks misleading...)
Is the left front guard of the 71 Super in decent nick? If so I'll take it. If you end up parting it out that is...
I might be in the market soon for an engine, possibly a starter motor too, if you have ideas of price, etc....
Ege Works - yes all guards in good nick - will keep you in mind if not takers on her whole...
Phantom - as above, will contact you if we don't sell as whole...
make sure you hang onto the 70's spindles.discs and calipers to swap onto the 1300:blah
Again, xcuse my ignorance - but why??
1300 should have drums f & r
Ok thanks....will probably take that advice....
