Looking for an oval beetle. 12 volt with suspension or engine work is good.
Driveable or rego is also good.
Very interested in anything with Judson Supercharger in reasonable condition.
Ben.

Thanks Matty - righto fellas - bit new to this so bear with me...
LOVE ratty. worn exterior/interior is great - just want mechanically excellent. (one on the Melburg homepage looks perfect?) Happy to look at shiny tho.
I'm located in Sydney but happy to fly/drive.
Budget is from $5k to $10+ depending on condition and wether with/without judson.
Mechanically challenged so the less $$ i have to factor into fixing or putting together the better.
any year is good.
best contact is email.

Benny.

How important is it to you that it's an oval?

I have a well sorted car for sale, at the lower end of your budget, fitting your description, sans judson, but it's a big window.....

There's a silver with schwarz flash '54 that might go for the right money.
