The Cal-look Lounge

A Buddy of mine up in NJ is thinking of selling his 67, but hasn't a clue what its worth and me being new to the USA neither do I, as prices seem to vary wildly on the samba etc any ideas?

Decklid standoff was done by Gary Berg when engine was done. Same for Z bar he redid it for me.
Gauges are VDO tach, cyl head temp on cyl 3 and oil temp from bottom of sump plus orig speedo redone and set at 0 when engine and trans were installed. Now reads 12500 miles.


The negatives on the car as we speak are some bubbling rust behind hood trim (under paint) some chipped paint here and there (was painted over 10yrs ago)  pushrod tubes leak, and carbs need rejetting, front hood isn't latching (have to adjust).

£7,000 :D

Really?

I know there is a 70 with a 2276 here near me for $6400.

Joke ;)

 ;D

OK well any good guesses?

I know in UK it would probably be worth 7k so $11,000.

That made me laugh Zach...... ;D

That's a really nice car with some very desireable (to me anyway) stuff in an engine built by a very reputable VW industry guy. Also many VW people really favor the '67.  I think the right buyer would pay 10K maybe 12K? Just my guess. He just needs to find the right buyer for it which may take time.

Me too lol
