Description
This has been my daily driver since 2001 in the San Francisco bay area (see rust). It's got some rust spots that will need work. Its got a little bondo up front and in the back. I have extra fenders, extra heater set, miscellaneous non specific VW parts and miscellaneous VW specific parts, extra set of window frames.
Currently its got a top and glass windows from the Thing shop, almost 10 years old. New tires recently. Rims powder-coated about 5 years ago.
I've brought it to a local VW specialist in Colma, CA whenever I had issues. Heater not installed but I two full BN4 heater sets ready to be worked on and installed.
No hardtop or rollbar.
Very stock engine with the exception of the 009 distributor. I have the dual vacuum distributor included as well.
It has the high back and safer Beetle seats. The original low back seats are gone. It needs a new hood pull cable., new engine to body seal.
It leaks a bit of oil probably from the dog house seals.
Muffler is shot but one will be included. I've got the rear bumper but its beat up.
It has a lot of little things that add up to a lot! It's ready to be stripped and off body restored!
If you have any questions please ask.
Thanks
Chris
