Wanted - Late 60's bug for new member!!!

BlueVelvet · Post by **BlueVelvet** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 9:24 pm

Greetings to all,
New member and first post. Now that the kids are getting older I'm looking for a new hobby. Had beetles in the early years but now want to learn more hands on and restore a late 60's beetle. Just need a straight
body with very little rust. Up to $3000 budget.
Enjoying the "Luft" so far and thanks to "Sunshine" for pointing me your way.

Remember what Frank says "I shoot when i see the whites of your eyes!"

Now its dark.

I have a 67 beetle, was owned by a 80 year old couple.
Always serviced etc, drives really nice and has a book fully of history about services etc.
Your welcome to come for a look and take it for a drive etc.
its light blau with schwarz interior.
Even has new tyres.

I just don't have room for it anymore and it now has to sit outside.
I also have a 69 beetle.
