I'm looking for a beetle after 30 years without one. Have looked at a dozen (66-74) and on most the green or red oil light didn't work even b4 starting. Common? Easy fix? Also......it looks like generally I have 2 approaches.....1. $1700-$2200 for a runner that needs lots of cosmetic and mech. work. or 2."restored", $4000-$5000. Sound about right?

The Light is possibly just a bulb out in the front of the Speedo. If you look behind the speedo, you can just swap the bulb with the oil light bulb, just to make sure it works. then I'd change it back, or steal the one from the blinkers...hehe...Good luck finding one man. peace.
