| I am trying to sell a 74 sunbug-it has been painted black on the outside but is in perfect condition and has the otiginal metallic gold inside and miraculously the paint "birth certificate" was taped off for some reason (maybe they knew someting-i can see gold corners showing slightly). it has a sunroof and im guessing very few if any after market parts-it is possible every piece on it is original, i will post why if someone can answer how much they go for-im not trying to make a killing, actually in a hurry to sell. |

| I am extremely interested in VW's-both my uncles always drove them and my uncle-well my namesake-jon, is an avid collector, buyer, seller, owner of a volkswagon mechanic shp (not just-guy did all imports, loves VW"s so much he works on them for free, last i knew had every model ever made that is able to be bought on his property. If anyone out there wants to talk vw"s let me know. I am not a rich man but i want to do what my uncle did-never work another day in my life it his passion and recently i have realized it is mine as well. My first car came from my uncle-a 76 rabbit. Had 190,000 miles and i put almost 400K plus on that volvo straight 5. My uncle and i never talked my entire life untill 2 months ago when my dad was diagnosed, not a drama thing-just how my family works. obviously i need a hobby-actually a new career and i want in. I have never been a car guy but have alwyas fixed some of the most complicated things you could imagine on my broken down trucks when i first started my business in the construction industry-not at all because i feel i am more inteligent than an average person-always out of shear necessity of no way to pay. I guess what im saying is i know formal training is great-i know from my own life-real people who live it and actually have passion for anything is the best way to learn stuff classes cannot teach ya |

I've seen 74 Standards that were SunBugs with no sunroof.
BTW.. that SunBug badge was not original, it was added by some dealers. |
well that is definately wrong. The sunbugs were 74 beetles with SUNROOFS or the Convertable. There is NO possible way that a 74 sunbug wont have a sunroof, that was the whole point.
