Something we all want i guess :P, just seeing if any are available soon. For a vw 1969 beetle. So 1500 bodies would be excellent :P. Bare/semi bare,
don't wanna pay too much.
Or...
Think anyone got a lwb buggy body instead?
Nah, that would cost more, but yea.
Prepared to ship from sydney?
how many bodies are you planning on wasting???
He's up to number two... IMHO, I think you should stick with the one you have Chris.
-Staggers.
just had a shower Chris and checked no rust and spose i was bare
too cold to stay that way though lol
lol, so does that mean ur not a man of steel ay karmen? hehe.
Hmm, shipping from sydney. That will cost more than hte car, Lol. Will keep it in mind though.
Body wise, this is the 2nd wastage, unless ur willing to swap a rustless one for a rusty one , if ur that concerned about not throwing away the rusty ones, hehe.
what they want for the sydney one
if no floor etc its light and could fit on the trailer on the splitty on Thursday
yeah, hmm. Matt, what would u be asking for it u rekon?
do you want doors? a little rust at the bottom of them
the bonnet is RS
there is a patch in the left (i think) front footwell
the rest i'm pretty sure is rust free.
it's a 1970 1500.
guards are already gone.
I'll have to check it out - haven't looked at it in 6 months.
about $100-150?
is a thread on here or can u mail a few pics
are u in St Marys ? or
his is just a tht as may be able to get to Bris for BChris, HRMatt
The car is near St Marys. Will go over and get some pics. haven't been over there for a while.
am leavin here Bris 10:30 am will it be in the email or posted on avd by then??
He'd only need the basic body...
-Staggers.
am pickin a car trlr up at Willmott about 8 pm
tomorrow?
didn't realise so soon.
I might be able to get there by then.
hmm, this patch? its a worry
like, as in a patch of rust? or pre-welded patch? or just surface? or something small enough to be filled?
i have to say we are rushing it put it up for sale u have a lotta vwers down in the big smoke
Chris feels pressured I feel for him ...lol
Buy a welder and save that poor body cause no one else will!
lol, its alright.
Its just a thought process. its hard to really know if a body is clean of all rust, unless someone has tinkered in alot of areas with it for about a
monthish...
usually if theres rust, u tend to find more somewhere else, and then a bit more here, lol. But u neva know.
So u getting a splitty ay mate? NOICE! she gonna be parked next to ur KG?
These are the only pics i have here.
The patch is welded in. Inside the wheel arch. Needs grinding as the welds are pretty thick. If I can get there tomrrow evening your mate can have a
look while he's local and let you know.
I was gonna use the body so it's a good base. Like i said i haven't looked at it in a while so don't want to push you into it. It's just sitting
on the pan, unbolted.
Ah, its welded in ay? Thats good then.
Well, if karmen can have a great look at it, will be awesome then. By the way, LUV THE RATTY FASHION!! that is hot!
If u can have a looksie, that would be highly appreciated mate, would luv it. I got the money in cash at the moment, will have to call round to a bank
if things go swell after the mornin' inspection.
I really appreciate this opportunity Matt, thanks mate.
karmen, what would u ask for freight u rekon? would it fit on board without damage?
Tell ya what Matt, tis alright mate, Big hike tryin to get it up to QLD. I'm sure hte boys here wouldn't like want me laying a finger on another
innocent defenseless bug, hehe.
Thanx for the offer though, will keep it in mind, something has just turned up, thats all. On the bright side, its open here now for anyone else
interested
No probs... might just keep it for something a little down the track.
Who knows where some of those curved bits of steel might fit into somethign else I'm building.
always handy. I'm sure it will go to good use.
Hehe, the decklid or bonnet might make a good sled. U got any groovy Rod projects to show off? :P or any teasers of whatcha up to? I remember photos
of ur yard with rods in ur driveway, was my idealistic view of heaven.
