54 beetle for sale in adelaide
Hi everyone,
Just saw this in the paper, I don't know him so just ring the number!
VW Beetle 1954, very rare
Unfinished project, all parts available
$2990neg VNZ-677
Ph: (08) 8276 3060
I spoke to him and he wants to sell it as a whole.
It is rolling and has a very straight and clean body,
all original panels but is missing one rear guard.
It is on 54 floor pan and needs some work to finish it off.
I would rather it go to someone in the VW community
rather than someone who has no idea!
Good Luck,
Turbo54
C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.

Yeah I agree Dan, we should swap ours for superbugs.
Heaps more rare and wanted. And those huge taillights, sweet!

Hey, I have a super you can swap for.... 
I've always wanted an oval, but never been in the right place, right time scenario..... and a 54 would be the pick of the bunch I reckon. About as
early as you can expect to get relatively easily in Australia.

Yeah i agree Doug, and with Dan's and Mine being January's even better, not sure what month the one for sale is but is still 54!
I would love to buy it but already building one.

Yeah, I know of where there is a complete 54 not far from where I live, could get it for ~$1500 I'm sure, but finances dont stretch that far right
now.
One of those one owner cars, that have sat outside for the last 20 years - bits of rust, and very ratty but essentially 100% complete.
