Hi All,

My Dad bought this bug. Its striped for painting but in fairness to the fella selling it he was honest about its condition. Looks solid enough but the paint work ant great on it so will probably get that sorted. Will post some pic's when we get it home.

Hi all,

Just got this home. Hav'nt had a good look yet but it looks great! Needs a paint job but to my surprize its a factory fit ragtop on it. There is a great job done on the seats. Will have a better look Thursday and take a few snaps to stick up for you all. The guy who owned it had loads of calls but we were the only one's to view!

Yeah, I was expecting a lot worse. Looks pretty good from here, especially at that price. Nice one.

Thanks,

It looks great in the picture but in the flesh it needs a paint job and there is a good few little bits to be done if I had it as I would be fussy. He is not sure what he is gona do with it he may just sell it on if another one he is after comes up. He has offered it to me but unless somthing goes I hav'nt the room :-(. I would love to give it the love it deserves as I would love an original Ragtop.
