[FS - NSW] SOLD SOLD SOLD ACT - 1969 1500 Beetle - Manual
Sellers Name :Bill
Contact Bill via email initially - adsldmwm@tpg.com.au
Car Located in CHISHOLM ACT 2905
Sadlly parting with Manuel. 1969 1500 -Registered n the ACT till Feb 2010
$5000.00
Car Manufactured in Germany in 1969- first registered in 1970 and has been in the ACT ever since. Engine runs very well, cruises nicely - lovely to
drive - I have used this car as a daily driver. You can see in detail what I have done to this beetle following this link
http://vw.smonson.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1137&start=0
and this one
http://vw.smonson.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=1144
All brake cylinders replaced, new brake calipers on the front, brake lines replaced, new front and rear wheel bearings, fuel tank completely treated
with POR15, new steering wheel, speedo replaced with KPH and a period working AM radio installed..Headliner does have some small tears in it. Seats
are in good original condition. Tyres more than 80% tread - new spare. I also have a full carpet kit (black) I decided not to install it because most
VW buyers like to inspect the floor pan first. There are no areas of this car currently requiring rust repair or treatment as I have done this.
$5000.00 or nearest reasonable offer

Hi Danny,
Floor pan is solid and was completely treated . See the links in my original post for more info. Heater channels are clean - and heaters work very
nicely.

Would you say anything needs sorting on this, your honesty is appreciated, could it pretty much drive off okay, looking at some big trips soon so need
to cost up any maintenance at the start,

There are no known 'issues' with the car. Send me an email (adsldmwm@tpg.com.au) and I'll give you my phone number if you wish to discuss in more
detail.
