You "found them in the woods", on private land? Are you on the land with permission from the owner? Shocked

https://holland.craigslist.org/cto/d/1964-volkeswagen/6995166346.html

Okay, I know this is not the best form for this but I thought I would put this out here for people. I was looking on craigslist and found it. Its a bit overpriced but it only has 33k orginal miles and it shows it, the original seats are amazing and the carpet looks like new, it looks like its the original square weave. It looks like the paint has faded bad on it. Its too bad that the pictures are bad but I thought I would put it out there since you never see this much originality of beetles around still and so that if anyone is interested.

Yeah, I agree on the color, it looks weird, it looks repainted but could it be extreme sun fade? The dark part seems weird too. The only reason it seems legit is that the seats are the correct one-year-only seat style for 64 I believe and you can get the material. Other than that, there a few questionable things about it.
