How much has it cost you ?
Its all in the details you have none??

Hey westie,I had a good look at your bus last time I was down your way,and she's pretty sweet and all the hanging pannels being NOS that's a pretty
good start and it not a shiney so you have an idea what the bones of the bus is like.i know of some restored buses that If they came on the market
you'd think nice bus but I know that they ain't.The Turkis 21/23 that came from mt tamborine a few yrs back I think sold at the time for 25?k if
some one is serious about getting a good bus you must take the time to check this one out it.

Westi, there were some on carsales, not sure if they are still there but completely refurbished they are very expensive - seen them between 70k up to
150k if it is a RHD.
There is one for sale on DSK which you can also look at. Even though the market at the moment is a bit tough I think for a real collector they will
pay the money just to have one.
If all the bits are there, the rust repair has been done and it is in primer ready for respray and assembly and if it is a RHD my guess without seeing
it is around the 35-40K mark at a minimum.
DSK I think may be a better forum to get an idea of the real value due to specialising on early model buses.

Thanks for the input guys. Wow that link bus above was a peice of shit.do u think they will actually get that kinda money.
That's why I posted.just wanted to know if there are people that exist and actually want them. And ruffly what they are worth.
Mine is proberly one of the best I have ever seen. That's why I bought it I guess.
And yes original Rhd with just about everything.pretty much paint and assemble.
I really appreciate the help guys , and I will post up some pics this week sometime.

Sorry to see you have to let the samba go Brad....I know the feeling though
The market is a little flat at the moment but there is always demand for genuine RHD sambas. There are great deals coming out of the US at the moment
with a lot of guys over there hurting quite badly, but the left hookers will always bring around 20% less than a RHD example of comparable quality.
This is based on my observations over recent years in the aussie scene, and seeing what is on offer in the US over the last four trips over there (so
just my 2c)
It is very hard to put a figure on especially not knowing the bus in person and the work that has gone into it. If its totally complete (no missing
parts) then I would take a very rough guesstimate of around $35-45K....but depends on a lot of factors. To give you a comparison, Gerson (who owns
Klassic Fab in the US - funky green repair panels) has just listed his barndoor deluxe (23 window) for sale with 2L+ stroker type I, Fuchs, disc
brakes blah blah with all metal work done for A$65K (LHD admittedly).
And similarly a very well restored (Steve Hopkins resto) 21 window RHD sold for close to if not over $100K not all that long ago. But obviously
depends what was spent on the resto. Theres not a lot of them around so demand will always outweigh supply (good for the seller). I would suggest
carsales and other medium apart from just AVD and ebay which can attract people wanting something valuable for nothing (as I'm sure you have
experienced already with PM offers). DSK forum is also another good place where guys with realistic money tend to lurk for splitties. Let me know if
you need a hand to list it there.
All the best with the sale
cheers
AL

Totally agree Al. In good nick they are worth a tidy sum of money. If westi is saying the one on carsales is a piece of sh%t, my guess is that its
probably worth around the +50K mark.
As you and I have mentioned, I think DSK is most likely the best option to get a fair valuation. Good luck with the sale Westi and don't get ripped
off.

... dont get ripped off?? wtf
erm in the real world it is worth what someone is willing to pay at the end of the day 
it happens all the time 'everywhere everyday'
if your don't get what u think it's worth, keep it - simple
or
if you want it gone so be it - simple
it's not primary school to figure it out ffs
if you want fantasy lotto figures head over to kkult n snuggle up to the 'what a kombi is worth' BS
fookin comedians 
peace out

Fair enough h. And if he does the right research he'll be able to make an educated decision of what its worth. Only worth what someone's willing to
pay, true, and if enough people are aware that its for sale all the better.
Dont' worry be happy

Thanks again for sharing.
I had a figure in my head before I even thought about selling it.
And I knew that it will always be up to the individual ,what it would be worth.
But I just wanted to ask what others thought.
Cheers again.

Considering what you have to spend to restore them properly, I would have thought that 23 window in the link above would be worth half what he is
asking. Otherwise, you could buy one already restored without the hassle of doing it yourself.
If yours has all of the rust work done along with all the parts there, then I would think his asking price would be about where you would be.

Geebus, I know I've been out of the loop for about 13 years but that's just ludicrous. The buyer must of been very keen or very drugged up or just
got splash cash.....
I still can't justify some of the money people want for Kombi's at the moment but thats just me. I really should of kept all my VW's from many
moons ago and put them in a shed and brought them out now........

yeh guy's it is for sale.
i just want to take as many photo's as possible,and time is always hard for me as i am always silly busy.
i am busy and don't wish to be answering thousands of question about what is and isn't ,so i figuerd if i take heaps of pic's it might make things
alittle easier.
i am already getting to many phone calls and offers as is.
so emai and pm will be the best for a response.
i will get some pic's up soon,unless i get an offer i can't refuse first.
down sharon.
