Found mine.
For the registry: Maybe the latest surviving 1200 A with factory ragtop. A long way to go, but... it is possible. I'm kinda happy with this rustbucket
Cheers,
holg
VIN 117839304
Engine No. D0221365 (still at it's place)
Color: Fontanagrau L 595
Option: Ragtop
born July 3rd, registered July 11th 1967.

Bought this Beetle one month ago. I have already started disassembling the car. All owners before were improvising and ignored the rust problem just by adding more and more sheet metal layers. It looks OK on the pictures posted but it's actually a can of worms that will be fixed.

Was gonna say to add me too...
'67 Sunroof
VIN#117229014
Numbers matching!
Saw it was already registered by Chris?
Chris Valone was going to team up with Eric Shoemaker to restore this one, but I bought it instead!
So, it just needs to be updated to my username.
Thanks! |
