Must...state...price...

and your email is not listed...

Posted by: Tom_T Jan 20 2015, 01:27 PM

welcome.png .... glad you got my email! smile.gif

Also put a post in the Garage Forum to intro yourself, along with a link there to your ad here, so folks can see you're for real! biggrin.gif ....same at 914club

You also need to list a price in the ad under the rules here, but from your ad wording I think you just forgot it.

The next post will probably ask for more pix! ... and questions, of course!

Good Luck! beerchug.gif

In addition to what the others have said....when you say "was completely rebuilt in the late 80's" do you mean the engine or was there more extensive work on the car? Is this 100% original paint? Thanks.

Wheels look like painted Pedrini's

Posted by: dlee6204 Jan 20 2015, 05:35 PM

The wheels look like turtle backs

Yes, turtlebacks ... Samba ad: http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1727104

The low mileage will certainly attract attention, but as others mentioned, additional information and pictures will help sell the car.

Posted by: Cairo94507 Jan 21 2015, 08:08 AM

New poster with a seemingly nice car. We will need to see a lot of high res pictures of this car. The Samba pictures are poor quality and they do not do the car any favors. welcome.png

Yes, Mike, you're right, sorry about that. However, they aren't painted Pedrinis either. The wheels are most likely made by Performance Industries.

is that the scarlet red paint code?

Posted by: lostreasure Feb 11 2015, 08:48 PM

Did it sell?

Posted by: fear May 1 2015, 12:39 PM

Car is still for sale, I have been off for a while.

More information on the car, runs and drives smooth, shifts cleanly. Car has been cleaned from front to rear and shines gorgeously. To clarify the rebuild, the transmission was not touched, Clutch was replaced, vacuum hoses, gaskets and other time degraded items were replaced. There is one spot of rust and that is on the inside of the drivers side seat belt latch. The hell hole as mentioned is rust free and in great shape. THIS IS NOT A RUST CAR LIKE THE EAST COAST AND NORTHWEST. Just a real kick to drive. People who have come out would have taken it had they had the capital.

I cannot see the albums.

Posted by: fear Jul 28 2015, 08:58 PM

So this a bump and an edit. I am dropping the price to $16k. I am in dire need of a one ton truck. So preffer to sell it fast. I had it looked over by a few local exotic shops and they were impressed by the overall condition of the car. Please again feel free to message me with questions.

I think he means that a 2 owner car with only 24,000 original miles (with all records) should be quite desirable to a pretty big audience. Maybe the original asking price of $20k or the OP not communicating frequently enough is the story here.

Ignore this account

Posted by: fear Aug 3 2015, 06:58 PM

I do apologize for not being on here as much as I should But I am a full times student and am gearing up for the next semester while working overtime. If the audience is interested PLEASE PM me i am much better at responding to those than I am at watching the thread.

You might consider editing the original post to include the pm preference rather than "email".

Posted by: 914runnow Aug 30 2015, 08:25 AM

off at 1pm to see this car..pretty excited....

Posted by: 914runnow Aug 31 2015, 09:41 AM

The car was fully repainted to the red from green....It is a 1971...The carpet was also replaced thru out...dash is cracked...but the 71 interior ..all n all looks good..
as far as seats and vinyl...the mirror and visors and shift knob have been replaced.. the horn ring shows very well...appears as to be very low miles..windows roll up n down nice..the wood dash face is a good job...looks kool..but NOT oem..speaker grills have some broken vanes....fuse panel cover missing..the door stays need
the rebuild kits...needs new seals for all of interior top areas..
ODO is at 25 thou now..did not check behind the seats for rust...front trunk is solid..with the spare as original and whitewall tire..tools are all there..but have surface rust...tank and related surfaces are nice for a low mile car..although the plated surfaces in some areas should be brighter for the miles..the brake resv strap is black and that is flaking..
Rear trunk has had some repair as far as rust and still has a few holes in rear
corner of psngr side....original jack is still there..as the front and interior..the carpet pcs also replaced..the rear t top rubber holder need to be replaced..cups and front
holders good..the top of the rear tail hsngs have the small heat crack on the tops...
the front valance is missing..and the grill covers in the bumper are missing some vanes..there is repair needed for the front bumper...the front lenses are decent..
did not pull the lenses and inspect the chrome inside..psngr side clearance light
assy needs repair and lens replaced..drvr is good although lens is faded..
windshield chrome is nice..T-top is REALLY nice on the exterior..wow really nice..
the rubber tops on the bumpers are okay.....and the vinyl was installed on the
targa bar..this was not oem on this car...rear lenses are good..and the rear valance
and outer rockers have all been restored/reworked...
drvr hell hole good..psngr unknown..batt tray looked good ..AND the recall battery top cover was on there..way koool!!
Motor is a mystery..as many parts are repainted..although....the heat xchngrz for
stock look XLNT!! even gray oem paint on the heat tubes.. and heat boxes look xlnt..
Bursch 1.7 muff....replaced oem springs and Boge shocks on rear ..sits up nice..
Sooooooo before I run out of battery...nice car needs TLC...low mile?? Many parts and pcs point to that direction..owner says he has the docs to prove..as far as a
Concour car??no..still if a low mile car with what has been done...not bad..still body repairs are needed...and pcs replaced..71's are getting hard to find ..so I recommend
to see it in person..and go from there..
Thanx Rx
