 :D
the local scrappy has a fairly good white 1500 beetle in (which are now pretty rare!!) has the original card liner, rubber mats, 1500 decklid with drip tray i'm going to nab next week.
went down there with a mate today, asked if they would sell it, they said no its getting crushed!!  :'( :'( :'(
are they not allowed to sell them? or are they being silly pikeys? well yeah.. as you can't reason with them even!

yep  :-[
my friend was kinda interested though, although he had just bought a pretty much unwelded 1303 moments before,that had been sitting on a drive!  :D
but its always a shame to see an old car get crushed, when quite easily it can be put back on the road for many other people to enjoy
