Volkswagen Squareback
1500 quid for a square back is unheard of now a days
There is a reason for 1500 quid. Unless you have extreme restoration panel making skills, then this car is not for you. My own squareback is taking panel making to a level above welding in bought panels. Panels are not available, unless you are extremely lucky and have loads of money.
I looked at this car yesterday, and realistically its a parts care, unless you are extremely ambitious. It needs all the usual repairs and some. Front inner bulkheads, heater channels full length, floor pan edges, door bottoms, skins. Rear wings repairs. , inner rear wings full repairs on body shell. Rear tail panel which is there.
And repairs to a fuel injected system where engine is turning. Roof front bonnet, tailgate and front wings are in great shape., its a body off job with good panel making ability. If all that dont scare you and you plan a day down to look at it, then call in to me at N91X384 which is 1/2 mile away from chris, and i will show you mine on the lift with wings off and you can see the type of repairs you will be facing if you want. It would clear up things for you .
Or check out my thread on a squareback resto that has loads of pics to show you whats ahead of you on this car...https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2058098814/1967-vw-variant#latest
Of course anything is restorable if you have the time, patience and skills

the 80s had a lot to answer for! I still like to see stuff like this at shows as all part of Beetle history. Guy up here has an immaculate red one in that style.
