I'm seriously thinking about selling my 68.

Specs:

Fully restored 3 years ago.
All body work & paint made by laurent dejaifve, hugely skilled man!
new Genuine VW doors,4 wings, rear & front valances, rear & front wheel wells, trunk bottom/firewall, heater channels, bulkead,... Basically everything except the roof & dashboard.
Every mechanism, bolt, metal bit has been restored & galvanized, works like new.
All new wiring loom modified to match the improvements (msd, gauges, etc..)
Powder coated chassis, original VW half pans
Rancho pro-drag gearbox with quaiffe diff, rhino case, etc.
2110 engine, 48ida, alu case, dpr crank, msd ignition with 009, berg linkage, fk87, full flow.. Dynoed last year at 177hp with webcam86c, will be dynoed again before sale
4 dics brakes. New front VW beam (no puma crap) with adjusters & drop spindles.
unique dash with 911/914 gauges & 914 steering wheel with rare 911 RS horn button
race-trim bucket seats & door panels trimmed with period herculon by B.Newburry, black headliner, black carpets
Genuine deep 6 and 5,5 fuchs, polished and detailed properly, fitted with 205/70 and 145/70
obviously everything on this car is new or in like-new condition. I never thought that i'd ever be selling this car when I did the resto so nothing has been spared. Lots lots more, ask me for any details.

This is a 12sec capable street & strip car that I drove to many shows all over europe with no problem at all. It has been featured in UltraVW, VWScene, Super VW and Street VW's and won a few awards including best post 68 at ebi.

Also the whole resto thread there: http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php/topic,1300.0.html

Why am I selling? Well I guess I've lost the flame for it and i'd rather see it being used than stay in my garage collect dust. It's under a cover but you get the idea.. Smiley

Asking 27000€. there's already 12k in the engine, 5k in the gearbox, about 12k in new parts. you do the math Smiley

thanks a lot guys! We'll see if it sells, i know it's a lot of money i'm asking but I think the car is worth it.

Died, I got the bus fever many many years ago. A bit more now that I have a family, I have to admit. Smiley but if this sells i have some other bug projects in my head, not to worry Wink

It should be a difficult decision to decide to sell your first bug... ( As I told you, I wonder how you will react when you'll give the key to the new owner and see the car goes  Roll Eyes )
But well, it's quite difficult to fit a baby seat inside this looker  Cheesy

Another one..

I could go for a partial trade with some cash my way. Could be a stock beetle or a notch or squareback...

Will also sell this for 19.000€ without engine..

There's about 15k in body work, prep and paint so you do the math!  Grin

Sunday up! Can sell without engine, even without gearbox & wheels too if you want it "cheap" or if you want to put in a milder engine/gearbox combo. I also have a set of real empi8 i could sell with the car for a different look...

Guys,

This takes a spot in my warehouse that I might need soon, and I don't feel like renting a single garage to leave it there and let it slowly die so if anyone wants a great car, no engine or gearbox (can provide stock gearbox that works great) I'm listening to your offers, even the crazy ones. Try me.
