Maybe the thread title should be changed to "Official Restored Volkswagen Auctions Thread" so that we can keep the riff raff out. |
No to this, I feel we would get into arguing over what is or is not restored as this commonly happens in the many Whine threads. _________________ How to Post Photos

I've seen comparable and even more desirable Buses for far, far less.
Auction sales are not a good representation of fair market value. _________________ How to Post Photos

Their web site could be a bit more user friendly. I can't figure out which day a particular car will be auctioned unless I click on a one of nine days. For example, Lot 1502 - 1966 VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE is being auctioned on Sunday the 18th but the link you provided doesn't tell me that. |

A 1962 Westfalia restored for 100-110k, auctioning on Jan 16 2015.
The good news is the guys buying these have so much cash that when the kids get bored with their estate, they busses will get dumped for much, much less.
Ridiculous pricing. The 110k bus even comes with blue screamer Bosch coil.... _________________ .ssS! |

I was wondering when that gas monkey bus was going to show up at an auction. They couldn't sell it then, but some idiot will buy it now. _________________ John
