Ok, not a whine, but i'm following up on this just-locked thread:

http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=596219

I advertised my '64 Bug here for $8,500 this spring. Had the ad up for less than 30 days, sold it for $7,300. 200 less than I wanted to let it go for but I think i got a very good price for it, given what's out there for that year.

I just got a kick out of this shifter ad. It's "New Old Stock from the '60s," but thankfully, Car Custom had ESP- and made it to fit up to '72... Cool

Holy smokes- what a Grifter! No scratches on a repainted gas door- great- and the gia emblem- fantastic. Overspray on the undercarriage (now covered in chassis black fogging)- woopee. But excellent, #1 condition? And he's been a member for a few months already. I'd evict that dirty rotten parade marshall on the grounds of being a doughhead.

Haha i thought i knew a little history about vws but i never figured out they made a type two beetle Rolling Eyes . I also laugh a little that he calls the karmann emblem a "gia emblem" i bet he says it with a gee sound too. This man has to be a self proclaimed expert. I have to agree on the comment about overspray on a showroom condition vehicle. Also I bet this car's odometer has turned over a few times.

Hey guys im sure he worked very hard to hack up a perfectly good fat chick. He also has a nice taste of color. If I had a one of a kind like this (because no one else has made an ugly truck) i would ask way more. Rolling Eyes

Is that a special hub on there? I think Sport wheels usually only fit up to 73. I would ask him but according to the ad I'm not allowed Smile. That stuff in the signature lines cracks me up. He should just write -send me the money and STFU

There is the plastic collar missing, and for $350, plus shipping, plus asking a 4% feel if using Paypal (which against their rules) that damned thing better be PERFECT.

Check out this VW... Remarkably, it comes with electric start! (You don't see that every day).

http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1625380

AND, it corners on rails... unlike other cars that corner LIKE on rails.

Awesome machine indeed, and a bargain at only $13,900.00.

Wow they put nitrogen in the tires that has to add $5,000. And that header system and electric start has to add another $6,000 easy. I sure do wish i didn't have to hand crank my 1972 Super Beetle. Rolling Eyes

headliner installed by drunk monkeys, a truckload of incorrect parts... "as new"? 9.900€? that's about $13.000 for a car so "fully restored" that they even managed to switch the wiper arms' sides!

"Copies of the original bills, parts and labor invoices are available with the car for future reference and to document the more than $50,000 invested in this super custom, award-winning Baja Beetle!"

Uh... Really?
