Aussie Barny for sale. Go for it.
Not sure i'd pay the asking price. But then again if money was no issue i'd be thinking long and hard about it or is it short and soft.

for 34700us$ it has to be a bit more special then that in my opinion???you can get fully restored barnys in europe for around the 15keuros mark so you
could almost buy 2 from europe at this price????not saying that a GOOD resto is cheap but id like to see him sell that in the UK for 18.5k
pounds??just my opinion...still think its a very nice splitty though!!!!

I could be wrong but am fairly sure he is selling them for the owner of Brooky spares. They are their cars just Vic is handling the sale and i guess
getting commission. Like i said i could be worng. I do know that apparenlty most of the stuff out in wilberforce is not his but Brookvales spares
owners.

Yes
type 1 you are correct in your assumption.
This is a barny standard sunroof mind you,
How many standard sunroofseses do you know of let alone barnys?
I think price is okish,
go find one at K-mart,
U.k. dudes might grab it,
No one here will,
had a few drinks I have.

rarest of the rare
A RHD barny sunroof standard is a very very very rare bus.
Rarer than a barney 23 window or just about any other
'factory' splitbus that I can think of. I think there's 3
in the world.

i saw the one the 23 window barndoor that was being restored(about 5 years ago now)..(by the old owners of volksrestore brisbane:thumb great guys)and
somebody told me that they only made 300 23 window RHD barnys in that year(forgot exactly what year it was)but i think that i sold for a helll of a
lot less then this one.if yous want i can post a whole heap of photos of barnys that have been offered for sale in europe in the past 6 years???
plus me and dad found almost 30 barnys in europe on a parts hunt about 6+ years ago..even found a like new rust and dent free ambulance barny
(probably undercover and hardly ever used...and this was in a wrecking yard??)that we could have bought for 500dm(about 400au running...but i didnt
have my licence back then)but shipping was a problem.if you look on google theres a barndoor wensite that is based in the UK and there are heaps of
barnys 4 sale there..and are fridolines that super rare?????
theres also a 1952 papler police car 4 sale in europe at the moment(like a split cab with 4 doors)and there asking for 15k euros....now thats a
pretty rare car!!!one thing that i love(nothing to do with this subject)the wanted ads on the samba looking for hebmullers...willing to pay cash(just
asked what his expectatiions were and as usuall,lkooking for a 50-75k car for 10-20k????just love those people!!if you really want a rare vw there still out there,just go to europe and go for a long drive into the lesser
developed countries and you wont belive whats still to be found.
ill keep everone posted on my finds once im up there.best regards Andreas...wont be on the forum for a few weeks cause im pretty busy getting ready
for my trip.but happy easter to everyone and best wishes to all!!!:party

and if vic is the person selling this car on consignment.i recently recieved photos of the 1945 beetle that was offered for sale and to my knowlege
they never ever made rhd kdf beetles or i could be mistaken???when i saw
the photos from the 45 beetle it looked like scap metal for 25kau???no offence vic...but there was a 46 beetle alot more complete and original on the
samba last years for 13kau(10kus)just couldent get hold of the seller.i think i should start impoting barnys and split bugs if prices keep rising like
this..:kiss

I know ..
But really there are a bunch more kdf beetles, paplers, schwimms
and barndoor 23 windows around than there are barndoor standard sunroofs......
But it still only worth what someone will pay for it of course....
I'm just saying its really rare and 'special' because its factory and NOT a coachbuilt (even though they're rarer than most coachbuilts
anyway....)

Yeah...
So far this has been picked on even by me about the mirrors.
I was at K-mart this arvo and they had 20% off all barndoors.
I was unlucky because I missed out on the last sunroof Barny.
There was still one standard barny left but the box was a bit damaged so I passed on it.Yeah right!
Like I said before,you can't buy these at K-mart,why anyone gives this fine vehicle greif is beyond me.

This Barndoor is worth every cent of that money
You could not buy one and restore it for that money
And $45,000 is not that much money for such a rare car
My opinion only

I think this is a reasonable price for this bus.
I commented on the price he was wanting for other parts on Samba and thought they were expensive.
It is only worth what someone is prepared to pay.
Imagine how much it would cost to restore a barny.
The parts just dont fall out of trees.And the drive train is totally different to later splittys.
If I had the cash I would buy this(obviously after giving it the once over).
I would never just buy from pictures.
Cheers
Dave

i in no way said that this car was` a rippoff.i just think for that kind of money, you can get very rare vws these days...yes even rarerer than a
standard sunroof barny(dont know if there are just 2 of these left in the world.what it comes down to as somebody has mentioned,if somebody wansts it
and has the money then go for it.personally i think i could get alot more bang for my buck and i would preffer patina or a full ground up resto.i
guess its just up to personal prefference.
just like there have been 2 split beetle cabs 4 ale in the last 5 months.1 on ebay germany for 16k euros and another in portugal for 25k euros both
unrestored but the one from portugal was supposidly rust free with the original paint.and as for barnys and you have 45kau and there are really just 2
of these buetys left in the world then buy it if your looking for a RARE car...but just as mentioned its all up to the individual person..no offence
intended to the seller and aussieveedubbers or especially the kombi which i stated is really NICE!!!just not my cup of tea.and as for people that knit
pick.....aussieveedubbers are really good in this scene as i hardly see any knitpicking(myself not included)as when you post a photo on a european
website youll really see your car taken to pieces...
which i also dont like.and someone on ebay has a swimmer,restored 4 sale for 60k euros(over 100kau where about 8 years ago they used to sell for 1/4
of that(restores fully).just like the aussie container van..only 300(or 3000 ,ad in aus as ckd)and there are something like 15 registered in the world
if im not mistaken...still no reflection on price there???:kiss
sorry for the waste of space!!!
