Would make a cool rat looker. Sounds like it has already been butchered in the 60's anyway.
If you can't fix it with a hammer,
you have an electrical problem....

Translated this for ya fellas. Enjoy
"It concerns, on this occasion, an older restoration - in the beginning of the 70s. The car is driving-ready and has Austrian papers. In the type
light 1950 is put down. The only registered owner is known to me personally, and assured me that it concerns, on this occasion, basically an original
KDF car from the 40th. There with his acquisition, approx. 1960 in the braunschweiger area, from the bodywork the boot from the Windshield completely
ragged and the beetle also, otherwise, in a pathetic state was, the first owner completed the good piece with beetle parts available at that time. I
would value the whole state with 3. Of course some small Lackabplatzer and rust places exist. However, no repair work are to be come due around by the
annual examination usual in Austria.
Experts with the Marterie are known can recognize easily that, e.g., the bumpers, the side discs of the doors, the tank, tlw. the vehicle interior
equipment as well as the front axle do not correspond to the original.
As a front axle an axis found to reach use around the high-level position from a VW bus. The gear is with rear axle and main entrances original KDF
and can be switched for an unsynchronized gear beautifully soft. The differential barrier is naturally oneAs a front axle an axis found to reach use
around the high-level position from a VW bus. The gear is with rear axle and main entrances original KDF and can be switched for an unsynchronized
gear beautifully soft. The differential barrier is inserted naturally and functioned, also without rattles and plucking with narrow curves. The
clearance amounts to approx. 25 cms.
The brake was reequipped to hydraulics, because a classification in Austria at the past, otherwise. The interior equipment could be still original
partially. Because there is comparatively only few published Orinalfotos, however, about the type 82 E, I do not credit myself with a more precise
assessment. The speedometer is without sign KDF, however, corresponds, otherwise, to the original. Also the clock is noteworthy and not to find with
certainty so often.
Although the varnish has suffered in the course of the time, the beetle is still the eye-cacher at all vehicle meetings. Nowadays a whole restoration
would be on grounds of
I have described the vehicle after the best knowledge - the technical information comes from the first owner. With pleasure I transmit other photos
with better resolution - simply question to the salesclerk click and send E-Mailadrese. The vehicle can, or should become visits and probegefahren, so
that after the end of the auction no misunderstandings seem. I release myself as a private individual and mediator from all Gerantieansprüchen. It is
also not to be laid possibly a calculation, because the Verka.
In short, the car is suited for everyday life and could be fetched without other on own axis. No dispatch is possible for it - excluding collection
and payment suburb with the present owner. No Preisnachverhandlungen!!!

on grounds of the good care with postcomponents would be no problem. With some instinct and appropriate expertises a piece of jewellery can be done
from it.
In the area the beetle is a real spa vehicle and does not take second place to all-wheel-done Frahrzeugen a lot. Also the ride comfort is compared
with the armed forces tub (type 82)"
Hope this helps fellas!!
Cheers Will.
In the area the beetle is a real spa vehicle and does not take second place to all-wheel-done Frahrzeugen a lot. Also the ride comfort is better
compared with the armed forces tub (type 82), because less vibrations appear and the engine noises are quieter in the interior around something.

and payment suburb with the present owner. No Preisnachverhandlungen!!
