i found this 65 on craigslist described as a parts car that was already used as a parts car but its way to nice to cut up so i decided to save it
car came with a title and minimal pan/channel rust/rot
looks to be a fairly original car that's never been messed with
now to find all the missing parts |

" now to find the missing parts "
It looks like a tough job ahead finding the rear seat and the hood trim
I would tell you what a great source SAMBA is but the black bug tells me you know that already
Funny how VW's multiply
Why are early Volkswagens like potato chips ?

both the black car and the blue one are sept of 64 build 65 models. the blue one has a 61 1200cc engine and the black one has an 1835cc dp, so im going to use the orig engine from the black car in the blue one, that engine is also a sept of 64 build.
