Hi,
Sounds like a good car on paper, but maybe put up some pics so people can see for themselves. Photobucket or a similar site is a good way, and it
will automatically resize the pics for you.
Cheers.

well....
g,day mate, i'm new to these pages, but i've owned a few vw's since the mid seventies. simply, bar the splits, it is a buyers market at the moment.
i am actually looking at a car like this , but i live about 3 hours south, the cost in time and money to get any unregistered car down here and then
jump through the rego hoops, well... i love the supers but really the 60,s bugs are a lot more popular and there a few few of those for sale
registered and at similar prices right now. anyway good luck with it, pete

The rego bit kills a lot of interest. Who wants to pay extra to have a car transported if it will easily pass for rego. A car with 12 months NSW rego
is a much better car than one that will easily pass rego.

Close on $6k for an unregistered Super is just way to much. Try $3k to $4k max and you might get a buyer.
Have a look around at car sales, ebay etc and see what is ACTUALLY selling.
Also if you are serious about it then I would put pictures up in this thread. AVD Adds have a 95% sucess rate with pictures and about a 40%
without.
If a seller is serious then they will bother to put them up, no pics sometimes looks like you are trying to get people to come look and a lot will not
bother, but if they see a nic bug they will fall in love.
Every premium add on teh market attached pics.

ive bought quite a few of these over the years and the most Ive paid for an unregistered sbug is $800 and that was last year when the economy was
booming
do your self a favour and put 6 months rego on it and you may be in with a chance of getting a good price
or Ill take sympathy and buy another for $800

the saddest thing is that a good superbug is very much the nicest aircooled vw to drive by a long way especially the 75 model with rack and pinion
steering

Current registration and slip, pictures as well and you have a much better chance of getting good market price.
No reg, slip or pics and it limits the market to only those bothered to drive a few minutes to look at it, and even then I would estimate $3000 max
