Found this locally on Craigslist about three weeks ago, 1968 sunroof. Two local owners, 45,739 original miles. Serviced locally by a VW shop for the past 30 years. In the process of obtaining all of the maintenance records. Got it for $3500. With the exception of being lowered, it's all stock. Had a 1965 Beetle, but sold that last weekend. Loving this car!

NICE! A '68 sunroof is pretty rare! The '68 only speedometers are very classy, I think. What are your plans for it? |

Thanks! Needs a transmission mount, but other than that, just detailing it and keeping it stock. |
