pez,
Looks like you have a fair amount of work ahead of you, but you are certainly starting with something that is worth restoring.
I think taking the massive roll bars off the vehicle really cleans up the vehicle, although I will admit they were distinctive and unique. The
previous owner must have had a real phobia about potential rollovers.
With all the other ongoing CB projects, I'm sure the other guys can be a great deal of help to you with any specific questions that come up.
Where are you located?
Is your CB on Bill Moore's CB Register?
Regards,
Steve

Hey Peter, being the dim bulb Yank I am, I had to go the my online dictionary of Aussie slang.....and couldn't come up with anything.
"Give us the goss" .......I have no clue what this means.....other than if that is a typo/keystroke error........then I have an idea. 
Set me straight and enlighten me.
Regards,
Steve

Hi i've had it for 2 weeks and knew about it at the same property 26 years ago and by luck came across it 26 years later ,thinking it would of been
long gone but no it was there waiting in the shed all this time !
its a goer ,its not as rusty as the photo's make it look its been (lol) maintained with red oxide primer here and there and it was a shooting wagon
in the bush ,thats why so many roll bars to lean on ,
its on bill's registar ,as in goulburn still!
i have 8 projects on the go but this was too good to leave there so i got it ,also hence no shed room and the tarp for the time being !
thanks for the help navigating me with threads and photo's etc
i'm getting it worked out (lol)
jason

price ??
What are the mechanicals like- still have the reduction rear end and CB front, the more original the parts the better the value - but as for price,
not enough pics to give an accurate price but I guess 2K would be good money if it was as stated...
But that is just a guess..

The Hottest CB Thread......that's goss!
jason,
Does your Buggy have the original "F" series motor?
That would make it worth more after a restoration, IMO.
If you don't mind me asking, what did you give for your CB?
I don't mean to be intrusive or overly nosy, I just like to try to keep tabs on what that market is.
These CB's don't come up for sale everyday, so I'm just trying to get a handle on sale pricing and "comps" (comparable sales....from real estate)
that relates directly to "value".
The fact you have "the roof (soft) and bows etc" also adds to the value. Most CB'S "lost" those items long ago.
I think you have the foundations for a really nice stock restoration, if that is the direction you plan to take. If you have something else in mind,
that's fine, but it may not be worth as much to a potential buyer.
Since you have all or most of the stock bits and pieces, I would strongly encourage you to restore your CB as stock........or if that is not
the direction of your efforts, make those stock items available to purchase here @ AVD CB forum.
Those parts could bring you some nice "bucks", as we say in the USA......i.e. $$$$.
Peter & Jason......thanks for the translation.
I thought maybe you meant "Give us the goods"....meaning "tell us the story".......so I was close in my interpretation......just
not quite on the mark with the right word.
English is THE global lingo.....but, by God, there are regional variations!!!
Thanks to the both of you for providing adequate voltage to light my cranial element.
I love this forum....you guys are THE BEST!
Regards,
Steve

Hi Jason,
You told me about it when I dropped in with my lad last week and I've finally found the CB.
Very nice.
I'll have to drop round your place when I'm up your end of town and have a closer look at it.
As I said before, fix any rust, take off the standard front and rear suspension, tranny and engine and put it in a safe place should the day come to
sell it.
Pop a 1641cc with Type3 swingaxle box in for better highway legs.
Then go straight axle on the back, a narrowed & adjustable front beam with drop spindles and put it in the weeds with a set of Radars or
Sprintstars.
Oh, and keep the OG paint as much as possible.
That way it goes rat and low now and if the day comes to sell or you really want a stock ride you can return it to standard.
BTW, did you tell everyone here what colour you were thinking of spraying it when you first got it home........??
Andy the Kombi guy
P.S. Have you posted pics of your nice OG Beetle and Volksrod on here?
