[WTB - QLD] pre 68 beetle tidy condition
[size=5]Hi I am looking for a pre 1968 beetle
- Will travel for right car, have bought cars 1500km+ away before.
- Just after something I can register with little work, presents alright, mainly with a solid
- Lowering and bigger motors are fine as I'd end up doing this anyway, otherwise mainly stock appearance.
- as far as budget goes depends on car, but have up $5k ready to go, could get a couple extra for the right car. If you come across any for sale
please pass it on.
- email me contact details or photos rob@mcrae.net.au
Cheers

Same yellow in other post I'm guessing?
I'll consider other models as well.
Not fussed on supers but if it's clean and cheap might be ok

I guess the days of the tidy $2k beetle are over.
I'm keeping an eye on ebay, gumtree, trading post, advertised locally.
This one stands out a bit has some rust in door bonnet, engine lid and who knows what else is hiding.
http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/ashmore/cars-vans-utes/1970-volkswagen-beetle/...
Is this about as good as it gets or do you still find good buys out there?

Not sure if you would be interested, but I have a 68 project with all paint done. Heaps of new parts (dellorto carbs, vintage speed exhaust) all glass
& seats, just needs a bit of time spent. Have photos to prove bare metal re-spray with detail photos of many major repairs.
Pm me for more info and I can email more photos and what not if interested
