Hi, I have a 1974 Swiss Frid bought it 4 1/2 years ago from Belgium. Although I love my little Fridolin but am thinking of selling it if I buy a house at auction as its a wreck and need the money to do the work. How much do they go for these days?

Hard to say without knowing the condition.
There was one in the USA recently that was listed for $25000 or best offer recently. I don't know the actual sales price. It was pretty nice but maybe not as nice as yours. It was lowered with lots of new parts and running a standard 1600 engine. _________________ How to Post Photos

congrats on the car is finally finished! I have a question on fridolin owners. I need to replace the tracks front sliding windows slide in. The tracks are worn and the windows are rattling:-) Are there any spare parts compatible from split bus or do you have any clue where to find correct parts?
Thank you,

Having wanted one for 15 years I've managed to buy 2 in the last 3 months. Both 1970, both rough! |
