[FS - QLD] BNE - 57 Oval
[size=5]Sold to a good home[/size]
Seller: Simon
Location: Birkdale, Qld, 4159
Item: 1957 VW Beetle Boronia Brown
Price: $1600
Contact: PM me (or ring - I don't like posting my phone number on the interweb but with the info on this site & white pages you can track down my
home phone number)
Reason for selling: I have finally decided that I need a 54 project, so I need to make room in the shed.
Condition:
The good bits:
I have got the Victorian rego history for it, the radio is pretty cool, the body is fairly solid, I had it running in 95 with new brakes & shocks,
and then put it into storage (where the original W deck & guards were stolen)
The bad bits:
It needs new floor halves welded in (new repro floor halves are included), the front apron has a bit of rust, the motor in the pictures is NOT
included but a complete (but disassembled) 36hp is included. Guards are from a later model & will need indicator mounting holes patched. Body
has been unbolted from the pan & most of the bolts sheared off.
Included:
All the parts you see in the photos (on/in the Brown car) except motor
New floor halves
Bonnet
FL and RL guards (from early 60's)
Semaphores
Original seats and cards
36 hp motor
Complete tail lights & mounts
Fuel tank & tap (Fuel tank with Dehne sender is available for an extra $250)
Repro running boards
Missing:
FR and RR guards
Bumpers (I might be able to locate some, I'll chuck them in if I find them)
W deck & popes nose (but can supply for an extra $400)
Will consider swapping (with cash adjustment either way) for 54 pan &/or shell.
